Technically, they're not pinmux registers (PINMUX_AUX_ space), but GP
regs (APB_MISC_GP_ space). Since the pinmux _code_ (no pinmux driver
is used in Tegra U-Boot) for T30 is just a large table slam, I don't
think it makes sense to add GP pad reg writes there. These pads need
to be tuned when you've got a board w/an SD-card device hanging off of
them. So it makes sense to have these 2 register writes here in
pad_init_mmc(). I can take out the SDMMC1/3 test and just write both
SDIO1CFG and SDIO3CFG, since the values are the same.

Why don't we get this in so we can move forward, and when there's a
kernel version of these params in the DT files, I can port it over.

I've got the compatible string changed to just 'nvidia,tegra30-sdhci'
in the dtsi file, and I've changed the pad_init_mmc() code to use the
mmc_id (PERIPH_ID_SDMMCx) instead of the base addresses to check for
an SDIO port before setting the pad config regs. I'll send that up as
V2 of the patchset, probably tomorrow.
