how come ???

functionally no, but (hypothetical situation) and if on
omap4/5/6/whatever, omap controller supports a bigger bus width then
you'll have to add a line like:

+       if (mmc_slot(host).wires == 16)
+               mmc->caps |= (MMC_CAP_16_BIT_DATA | MMC_CAP_8_BIT_DATA |
+                               MMC_CAP_4_BIT_DATA);
-       if (mmc_slot(host).wires == 8)
+       else if (mmc_slot(host).wires == 8)

do you see the problem ?? In my opinion it doesn't scale well.


The point we should note here is that MMC spec supports a max bus width of
8-bit. So anything beyond 8-bit is not in the picture as of today.

in that case, the code could be:

WARN_ON(mmc_slot(host).wires > 8);

if (mmc_slot(host).wires == 8)
        mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_8_BIT_DATA;
if (mmc_slot(host).wires >= 4)
        mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_4_BIT_DATA;
