Hmm DT-based boot finds the MMC card for LDP, dmesg below from DT boot [1].
Looks like you're on on -rc4 and not -rc3. My guess is that MMC is not
working for you with DT-based booting because you don't seem to have
CONFIG_REGULATOR_PBIAS in your seed config for. Care to try enabling that
for both your omap3 and omap4 seed config files?

I'm thinking along the same lines. In general, I do not and will not
apply any patches that are not fixes until all critical regressions are
out of the way. So not applying anything new for v4.4 until these MMC
regressions are fixed for v4.3.
