[U-Boot] [RESEND PATCH] sunxi: mmc: increase status register polling rate for data transfers

With a recent bunch of SD3.0 cards in our A20-based board we
experienced data transfer rates of about 250 KiB/s instead of 10 MiB/s
with previous cards from the same vendor (both 4 GB/class 10). By
increasing status register polling rate from 1 kHz to 1 MHz we were
able to reach the original transfer rates again. With the old cards
we now even reach about 16 MiB/s.
