Hi,

It seems this bug is related to two setbacks:
1/ the device tree material has not made its way to mainline linux for
3.3 (and it impacts the non-DT material as well).
- a bug reported by Ludovic did not get merged in 3.3-rc yet (we are working to make it happen).

So, you can find here:
1/ =>
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc.git;a=commitdiff;h=bdad0b9a1c7222a771d25e2a20e81f5563968002
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc.git;a=commit;h=2756bf5c03bd6fec9462c0742dddb771838bf080

2/ =>
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/cjb/mmc.git;a=commit;h=43df92914ea0623893bcb801791d5d2be2f5e015

You can "cherry-pick" those patches using git.

Hope this helps. Best regards,
