hmm.. yeah, having a separate binding document for sdhci would make the binding
really clean and we also don't have to carry legacy binding code. But we'll be
never able to remove omap-hsmmc driver then and end up maintaining 2 drivers
for the same controller.

yeah, once we have all the features in omap_hsmmc added in sdhci-omap, we can
add the omap-hsmmc compatible to sdhci-omap and remove omap-hsmmc driver.

Thanks
