Ok, I have tested it on Nokia N900 HW and interesting is that SD card is
also working fine. But its initialization is slower and prints warning:

 omap_hsmmc_send_cmd: timeout waiting on cmd inhibit to clear

But what is worse that testing on N900 HW is problematic now because
bootmenu rendering in upstream U-Boot is broken and it just prints ASCII
sequence garbage on the phone display.
