I'm sorry - no README.
All I can do is provide the info how it works for me :

platform code : provide init and chips select functions.

static void mvblm7_spi_activate_cs(u8 cs, u8 polarity)
{
        u32 data = in_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2 );
        if (polarity)
                out_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2, data | MVBLM7_MMC_CS );
        else
                out_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2, data & ~MVBLM7_MMC_CS );
}

static void mvblm7_spi_deactivate_cs(u8 cs, u8 polarity)
{
        u32 data = in_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2 );
        if (!polarity)
                out_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2, data | MVBLM7_MMC_CS );
        else
                out_be32( mvblm7_gpio + 2, data & ~MVBLM7_MMC_CS );
}

static struct mmc_spi_platform_data mvblm7_mmc_pdata = {
        .ocr_mask = MMC_VDD_33_34,
};

static struct spi_board_info mvblm7_spi_boardinfo = {
        .bus_num = 0x7000,
        .chip_select = 0,
        .max_speed_hz = 50000000,
        .modalias = "mmc_spi",
        .platform_data = &mvblm7_mmc_pdata,
};

static int __init mvblm7_spi_init(void)
{
        return fsl_spi_init(&mvblm7_spi_boardinfo, 1,
                            mvblm7_spi_activate_cs,
                            mvblm7_spi_deactivate_cs);
}

machine_device_initcall(mvblm7, mvblm7_spi_init);


Kernel config :
CONFIG_MMC=y
CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK=y
CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE=y
CONFIG_MMC_SPI=m

and of course the driver for your SPI controller ...

CONFIG_SPI=y
CONFIG_SPI_MASTER=y
CONFIG_SPI_MPC83xx=y


I've had no time to set up hotplug/card detect features.
Actually my system boots with card plugged in and and I do a "insmod 
mmc_spi.ko" -> card gets probed.

->mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1  /mnt/mmc


hope this helps.


cheers,
Andre
