[PATCH] powerpc/esdhc: enable the card insert/remove interrupt

Hi, Anton,
For the current polling mode, driver will send CMD13 to poll the card status periodically , which will cause too many interrupts.
Once I sent patches to detect the card when using polling mode last year: read the state register, instead of send CMD13. But, these patches were not accepted. Now I attach them for you.

Because these patches are not accepted, I think about the interrupt mode to detect card.
Of course, you are right, the p4080ds and mpc837xmds are still using polling mode, which just fix some boards.
The best way is for all.

Then, I will back to my previous patches, for FSL eSDHC, don't send CMD13, and just read state register to check it.
For all FSL silicones, the state bit is updated when card inserting or removing.

Now I have two ways to resolve this issue, I prefer to the polling mode (unfortunately, they are not accepted).
I will be greatly appreciated if you review these attachment patches again and give your comment.
If you think the attachment patches are OK, I will resend them to mail list.
If you don't, I will continue to work on the interrupt mode for FSL eSDHC.

Thanks.
