I have an MMC-over-GPIO enabled Broadcom but I can't get it to take a proper flash and boot for some reason with more recent checkouts. It runs (gasp) DD-WRT just fine though so I'm confused. If I can get it working again I'll test this, especially since I had to do a whole lot of fiddling with the original broadcom-mmc package to get it to work in the first place (back when it worked in general) so it would be a good "fringe" model to test (not a standard WRT54G with MMC mod). It's one of the old Belkin F5D7230-4 units with no serial console (no UART even) so it's that much more difficult to figure out why I get no completed boot. I may try to figure out how to install a UART so I can get the console output, but old posts regarding such said the expansion/bus header didn't have one of the higher address lines which would be required for a 16550.
We need to figure out how to test things like this, or some method of deciding whether an untested patch can go in with a single vouch that it works (usually from the submitter). Something like this is probably not used that much so I'd personally say toss it in and see if anyone complains that it doesn't work, as it's not exactly a core piece that could affect a large user base if it didn't work. And, the original version doesn't really work that well in the first place in my experience, so if this one doesn't either then its not much worse at least. Other patches though certainly could use a more complete test phase, maybe set up a test zone where users could sign up and input the equipment they have available and be able to connect a patch with a capable tester?
