Since the beginning of this driver which was initially for the MPC8379 and MPC8536 SoCs, there is this spurious 1ms delay. According to the comment it should actually be only 8 clock cycles. Esp. during EFI block transfers, this 1ms add up to a significant delay and slows down EFI boot.

I couldn't find any mention in the MPC8536 that there should be a delay of 8 clock cycles between commands. The SD card specification mentions that the clock has to be left enabled for 8 cycles after a command or response. But I don't see how this delay will help with this.

Go ahead and just remove it. If there will ever be any regression we can introduce a compile time flag, but for now I'd like to keep it simple.

In the split off imx driver this delay was also removed in commit 9098682200e6 ("mmc: fsl_esdhc_imx: remove the 1ms delay before sending command").

If someone can test with this patch, I think that it's more better. But i don't have any objection to apply this patch.
