Not that bad really, thinking more about this, since drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-acpi.c
is a platform driver, its probe function will never get called if
!device->status.present, since the acpi-subsys then will not
instantiate a platform device for the acpi-dev in question at all.

So a better fix would be to just drop the superfluous
check. I'll send a new version doing this.

Regards,

Hans
