Heiko,

since you started to apply the first 2 Patches of this series (thanks
for that!), now after all the discussions here (and the heads-up for the
implemented mode detection) I think we should leave the vcc_sdio
regulator settings unmodified.

It still could make sense to remove the cap-mmc-highspeed property. Are
you OK with a V2 patch for that?

Thanks,
Soeren
