Thanks to the generous donation of an SDHC card by John Gilmore, and
the surprisingly enlightened decision by the SD Card Association to
publish useful specs, I've been able to bash out support for SDHC. The
changes are not too profound:
i) Add a card flag indicating the card uses block level addressing and
check it in the block driver. As we never took advantage of byte-level
addressing, this simply involves skipping the block -> byte
translation when sending commands.
ii) The layout of the CSD is changed - a set of fields are discarded
to make space for a larger C_SIZE. We did not reference any of the
discarded fields except those related to the C_SIZE.
iii) Read and write timeouts are fixed values and not calculated from
CSD values.
iv) Before invoking SEND_APP_OP_COND, we must invoke the new
SEND_IF_COND to inform the card we support SDHC.

Modern SD cards support a clock speed of 50 MHz. Make sure we test for
this capability and do the song and dance required to activate it.
Activating high speed support actually modifies the TRAN_SPEED field
of the CSD. But as the spec says that the cards must report 50 MHz,
we might as well skip re-reading the CSD.

This adds support for the high-speed modes defined by mmc v4
(assuming the host controller is up to it). On a TI sdhci controller,
it improves read speed from 1.3MBps to 2.3MBps. The TI controller can
only go up to 24MHz, but everything helps. Another person has taken
this basic patch and used it on a Nokia 770 to get a bigger boost
because that controller can run at 48MHZ.

The CSD contains a "read2write factor" which determines the multiplier to
be applied to the read timeout to obtain the write timeout. We were
ignoring this parameter, resulting in the possibility for writes being
timed out too early.

Select a block size for IO based on the read and write block size
combinations, and whether the card supports partial block reads
and/or partial block writes.
If we are able to satisfy block reads but not block writes, mark
the device read only.

Support for the Secure Digital protocol in the MMC layer.
A summary of the legal issues surrounding SD cards, as understood by yours
truly:
Members of the Secure Digital Association, hereafter SDA, are required to sign
a NDA[1] before given access to any specifications. It has been speculated
that including an SD implementation would forbid these members to redistribute
Linux. This is the basic problem with SD support so it is unclear if it even
is a problem since it has no effect on those of us that aren't members.
The SDA doesn't seem to enforce these rules though since the patches included
here are based on documentation made public by some of the members. The most
complete specs[2] are actually released by Sandisk, one of the founding
companies of the SDA.
Because of this the NDA is considered a non-issue by most involved in the
discussions concerning these patches. It might be that the SDA is only
interested in protecting the so called "secure" bits of SD, which so far
hasn't been found in any public spec. (The card is split into two sections,
one "normal" and one "secure" which has an access scheme similar to TPM:s).
(As a side note, Microsoft is working to make things easier for us since they
want to be able to include the source code for a SD driver in one of their
development kits. HP is making sure that the new NDA will allow a Linux
implementation. So far only the SDIO specs have been opened up[3]. More will
hopefully follow.)

This patch contains the central parts of the SD support. If no MMC cards are
found on a bus then the MMC layer proceeds looking for SD cards. Helper
functions are extended to handle the special needs of SD cards.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
