Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mx3: Fix a race condition in mxcmmc

This fixes a race condition regarding interrupt bits in the SDHC
controller driver code.

In case of PIO-transfer it does not clear SDHC-status bit#11/12
in the INT-handler anymore. INT-handler might be called during
an ongoing PIO-data-transfer (with some other INT-flag set) and
PIO-transfer depends on these bits being set to detect the end
of the data-transfer. This also means that at the end of PIO-
transfer that PIO-software has to clear these bits itself.

However in case of DMA-transfer these bits have to be cleared
in the INT-handler, because they are used to generate INTs then.

Works solid, no more problems here, can transfer big files.
