hmm, it shouldn't report all numbers as present. oh well.

"mmcsd0: 32GB <SDHC SB32G 8.0 SN DD1242F8 MFG 09/2017 by 3 SD> at mmc0 43.7MHz/4bit/65535-block"
is better than before, but controller timeouts are sad. Welp.

If anyone is interested in debugging this (with the device in hand), my ACPI attachment patch is:
https://github.com/myfreeweb/freebsd/commit/4abb60611c53b6bf109e8854f60ecc697419cf1c

Once again, maybe NetBSD's way of supporting this (slight quirks in the generic ACPI SDHCI driver)
would be better than fsl_sdhci.

Yeah, mpr/mps drivers are present, would be an okay thing to try.
