   I meant other situations. The present issue with SD cards is, I believe, a 
symptom of a larger issue, which is that each architecture has its own 
idiosyncrasies with DMA. If there isn't an approach to deal with it in a 
systematic way then we'll keep finding more edge cases that need workarounds. I 
think that pushing this out to boards will be a mistake since this is an arch 
issue, not a board issue. This is different than, say, clocking, which is 
expected to vary by board depending on whether a clock is installed and its 
type and frequency.
