Ha, I gave up! There are more important things to fix, especially when I 
found another case that couldn't just be fixed by the IORT tweaking 
without more kernel patches.

The default in this set is PIO mode, no DMA, same as the Arasan. If I 
get motivated (or someone else does) they can pick up the pieces to 
finish turning the DMA on in linux. It also simplifies that IORT disable 
patch I posted separately since I don't have to worry about enabling it 
for a limit <2G.

The sdhci_caps_mask choice is what flags the device as not supporting 
DMA modes unless the user enables it. Yes this hurts perf, but not 
nearly as badly as disabling UHS mode because we can't lower the card 
voltage with the standard sdhci registers (rather having to depend on a 
nonstandard rpi mailbox call which isn't available without a _DSM() or 
something equally undesirable).

Presumably windows, *bsd, etc could make some use of the _DMA in the 
SSDT as well.
