[U-Boot] [PATCH] AVR32: switch to generic mmc framework

1. your patch title is misleading, because it also affects the AT91 architecture.
use AVR32 when patches affect avr32 only
use AT91 when patches affect at91 only
use ATMEL when patches affect generic Atmel stuff
2. you should use the git rename feature to rename files

As I see it, all this should come as three patches:

1. switching *all* AVR32 and AT91 boards to use the *existing* generic driver

2. removal of the now obsolete legacy driver

3. renaming the existing generic driver into the old legacy name
(this is a pure cosmetic act)

I would tend to dispute whether 3. is really necessary and beneficial
