There are today only two drivers that use this kind of binding, dw_mmc
and the at91 one. Neither seems to actually ever have been used with
more than one slot. I doubt anyone building an exynos-based system
will ever do a multi-slot solution, and it seems that the at91 driver
doesn't actually handle more than one slot.

I'm personally not that excited about complicating the bindings by
opening up for this -- I would rather work towards removing the
concept of slots if it's one of those things that are going to remain
unused. We have actually been talking about reworking the dw_mmc
binding to remove the slot concept (and simplify the driver by doing
so).
