It is expected that Extended CSD register(the size of this register
is larger than CID/CSD) will be referenced more frequently as more
fields have been added to Extended CSD and it seems that it is not
a good option to double the memory used.

This patch is intended to avoid the use of bounce buffer for reading
Extended CSD register in mmc_send_cxd_data(). It will provide a better
performance gain by removing memcpy() overhead for a half KiB and
a redundant bounce buffer allocated repeatedly at the cost of providing
DMA-capable buffer from upper caller(but on-stack buffer is allowed
with no performance gain).
