That driver looks completely different. As I notice in the cover letter,
the MMC_SDHCI_ROCKCHIP driver is closer to TH1520 driver.
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20240330175948.80931-1-bigunclemax@gmail.com/

Their IP blocks look very similar.
Moreover, on Linux, Rockchip SDHCI controllers (ex. rockchip,rk3588-dwcmshc)
and the TH1520 controller live in the same driver - sdhci-of-dwcmshc.c

We could do the same for U-boot. It will require to get rid of Rockchip
specific defines that come from asm/arch-rockchip/hardware.h.
And maybe rename the rockchip_sdhci.c driver to sdhci-of-dwcmshc.c.

That's why I mark this series as RFC. So I'm willing to discuss any option.
