You earlier said there are always going to be 'new' platforms that would
need dummy enabled.
Now just imagine if one of those platforms happen to share the consumer
due to which you suggest disabling the dummy (omap_hsmmc in this case).
If we re-enable dummy, then your's isn't really a solution.
If we require that platform to come with full compliance, why can't we
ask every platform to do the same?
