Hi,

The previous code used the controller-common quirk field to set a
per-controller DW_MCI_QUIRK_NO_WRITE_PROTECT. Is there really need to
do this per-slot? And if so, please explain in the commit message why
there is need for a brand new quirk for the same functionality.

It's even uncertain if there are any systems out there that uses the
multi-slot functionality of this driver to date, most seem to map one
slot per controller in the first place...
