According to the datasheets AT91SAM9261 does not support

Not all SDIO cards use 4-bit mode, so it looks to me like you have to
disable it completely (unless there's a third revision where it works
without any fine print?).

Well, I understand.

In your opinion, a printed warning that says to be sure to use only 4-bit mode SDIO cards on slot B... is not acceptable ?

It kind of disappoints me to remove this feature as the at91sam9260ek/9xe/9g20 board uses only slot B, and I really like to connect SDIO with IRQ on it.
