It looks like this sdhc implements version 1 of standard SDHC 
specification, while ours implements second version. Second version 
should be backwards compatible with first, I didn't want to submit it 
yet to see if vmstate issue will be resolved or not. And also the whole 
QEMU SD emulation scheme needs some refactoring which I've been busy 
with for a while now. The biggest issues are that currently we cannot 
hot-insert SD card into virtual board interface and we do not take any 
advantage of QOM (which is hard until Paolo's and Andrea's patches land 
in master).
The one advantage of our SDHCI implementation is that it provides 
interface to implement SoC-specific successors of standart SDHCI. I'll 
send these patches today (even though I wanted to do a lot more 
refactoring with them), Peter, could you please test them to find out if 
you can use them instead of your SDHCI implementation?
