How about porting the sdhost driver from U-Boot to barebox? This is
probably not what you wanted to hear, but I think porting the driver
mainly requires changing the boilerplate code which shouldn't be too
much effort.
The other solutions I can think of are crude hacks, like sneaking in
the correct device node by adjusting state->of_path in the state code.
