Hello Zhong,

Now, I see the problem. It happens when CONFIG_MMC=m and CONFIG_WFX=y
(if CONFIG_WFX=m, it works).

I think the easiest way to solve problem is to disallow CONFIG_WFX=y if 
CONFIG_MMC=m.

This solution impacts users who want to use SPI bus with configuration:
CONFIG_WFX=y + CONFIG_SPI=y + CONFIG_MMC=m. However, I think this is a
twisted case. So, I think it won't be missed.

I think that patch below do the right thing:

          This is a driver for Silicons Labs WFxxx series (WF200 and further)
          chipsets. This chip can be found on SPI or SDIO buses.
