+ <p>The driver is implemented as an extension to the existing MMC
+ bus, adding a lot of new SDIO-specific bus methods. Getting
+ information about the card works, including querying all the
+ supported I/O functions. Simple byte transfers and multi-byte
+ reads work.</p>
+
+ <p>A prototype of the driver for Marvell SDIO WLAN/BT module is
+ also being developed, using the existing Linux driver as a
+ reference.</p>
