This information is valuable to me, but now I would help if you tell me
where I can find the code of SDHCI controller for the SD card of
Exynos4412 in U-boat 2015.04-rc2 for a implementationtation reference.
I was reviewing the file exynos_dw_mmc.c as reference of DWMMC driver,
but now I have no idea what the file where the SDHCI driver for the
exynos4412 is implemented.
Thank you very much for your collaboration.
