Arend, can you say something more about what does happen here?

You drop some functions that were empty, but I guess there were here
for some reason. Did you discover in development process that things
like start/stop/reset is not needed? Or did you put place for
something that appeared to be not available on SDIO?

Shouldn't we keep it here and just implement lacking code?

From what I know this code was intended platform/os independent. In the open-source linux driver it was not needed as it relies on mmc_core/sdhci/etc. modules. I am more focused on softmac driver so the fullmac guys may want to correct my statements made here.
