Thanks for this driver. Unfortunately, this is not correct for the
Banana PI F3. The OrangePi RV2 buffers the signal from the SD card
connector through a transistor, inverting the signal. On the Banana PI
F3, the signal goes directly to the GPIO, and does not even have a
pull-up.

With the following change, I have been able to get the patchset working
as expected:
