Hi Jiayu,
Thanks for your work.

Tested-by: Junhui Liu <junhui.liu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Tested ok on CanMV-K230-V1.1 (k230-canmv.dts) with AP6212 (BCM43430)
SDIO WiFi module on MMC0 and MicroSD card on MMC1.
To be noted, a "broken-cd" property is needed to support SD card insert
and remove detect on CanMV board because the CD pin is not connected. I
am not sure if this is also needed on DShanPi as I don't have its
schematic.
