IMHO they could not be much more simple an non-invasive, so I'm still hoping you can include them. They simply hook up an existing driver and fixes a couple of timeout settings. (You are also already carrying code which is not simple an un-invasive and have a much longer road towards being included upstream, so I'm having a hard time understanding why adding these would be a problem. Please enlighten me so I can help solve it! Unfortunately getting upstream u-boot developers to review/apply patches quicker then they are already doing is not something I can help with.) If you need to be convinced of the usefulness of the AHCI support in Debians u-boot, please see https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Allwinner where you can read about the biggest gotchas with installing Debian on Allwinner hardware. That would be u-boot AHCI support and Linux MMC support -- where as MMC support is now solved with 3.15~rc8.
