Agree.

This function is for 1st stage only. I plan to remove it as soon as MMC
driver will be complete. Right now it is needed, however, to boot 2nd stage.

Right not I have working NAND, DRAM and UART. I plan to get working USB
soon. MMC seems to be (almost) generic SDHCI (very similar to existing
imx driver).

Regards,
Alex
