Here are what the patch set does.

• Remove .probe and .remove hooks from sdhci-pltfm.c and make it be a pure common helper function providers.
• Add .probe and .remove hooks for sdhci pltfm drivers sdhci-cns3xxx, sdhci-dove, sdhci-tegra, and sdhci-esdhc-imx to make them self registered with calling helper functions created above.
• Migrate the use of sdhci_of_host and sdhci_of_data to sdhci_pltfm_host and sdhci_pltfm_data, so that OF version host and data structure works can be saved, and pltfm version works for both cases.
• Add OF common helper stuff into sdhci-pltfm.c, and make OF version sdhci drivers sdhci-of-esdhc and sdhci-of-hlwd become self registered as well, so that sdhci-of-core.c and sdhci-of.h can be removed.
• Consolidate the OF and pltfm esdhc drivers into one with sharing the same pair of .probe and .remove hooks. As a result, sdhci-esdhc-imx.c and sdhci-of-esdhc.c go away, while sdhci-esdhc.c comes in and works for both MPCxxx and i.MX.
• Eliminate include/linux/mmc/sdhci-pltfm.h with moving stuff into drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-pltfm.h.

If you get time, would appreciate getting an ACK from you on the patch changes (including Grant's review). Thanks very much!
