[Not needed in newer kernels due to refactoring fixing this issue.]
With 3.14.29 (and older kernels) some of my I.mx6 Sabrelite boards were
crashing with the following oops:
sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver
sdhci: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman
sdhci-pltfm: SDHCI platform and OF driver helper
sdhci-esdhc-imx 2198000.usdhc: could not get ultra high speed state, work on
normal mode
mmc0: no vqmmc regulator found
mmc0: SDHCI controller on 2198000.usdhc [2198000.usdhc] using ADMA

This happens if the sdhci interrupt status contains SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT,
while the sdio irq was never setup. This patch fixes that in a minimal
way by checking if the sdio irq was setup.
In more recent kernels this bug went away due to refactoring done by
Russel King. So an alternative (potentially better?) fix for this patch
is to cherrypick the following patches from a recent kernel:
18258f7239a6 - genirq: Provide synchronize_hardirq()
bf3b5ec66bd0 - mmc: sdio_irq: rework sdio irq handling
41005003bcaf - mmc: sdhci: clean up interrupt handling
781e989cf593 - mmc: sdhci: convert to new SDIO IRQ handling
