Hi Erwin,

You mentioned in your previous mail on August that, you have a patch
to make mmc_spi
share bus with other SPI devices. This is the latest mail I can find
on this topic.

I am wondering whether this patch has been finished? Is it possible to
release the patch for testing?
I am planning to implement similar thing, but I hope to base my work
on your patch.

Best Regards,
