The area for struct mmc can be allocated dynamically. It greatly reduces
the size of struct omap_hsmmc_plat. This is useful in cases where the board
level code declares one or two struct omap_hsmmc_plat because it doesn't
use the Driver Model.
This saves around 740 bytes for the am335x_evm SPL.

I would like to understand why this saves memory though. Presumably
the pointer has to point to a real struct anyway, which uses memory.
So how does this help?
struct omap_hsmmc_plat are initialized variables so they are part of the
binary. With this patch the memory is dynamically allocated so that it's
not taking space in the binary.
