While looking in more detail into this series I noticed a problem in
this driver. (The patch is fine, and so is my Ack.)

The order of function calls in sdhci_f_sdh30_remove is wrong. It first
reasserts the reset and disables clocks and only then unregisters the
sdhci-host which should stay functional until sdhci_remove_host() (called
by sdhci_pltfm_unregister()) completes.

Best regards
Uwe
