+ *
+ * THE PROCEDURE
+ *
+ * See fw.c for the generic description of this procedure.
+ *
+ * This file implements only the SDIO specifics. It boils down to how
+ * to send a command and waiting for an acknowledgement from the
+ * device. We do polled reads.
+ *
+ * COMMAND EXECUTION
+ *
+ * THe generic firmware upload code will call i2400m_bus_bm_cmd_send()
+ * to send commands.
+ *
+ * The SDIO devices expects things in 256 byte blocks, so it will pad
+ * it, compute the checksum (if needed) and pass it to SDIO.
+ *
+ * ACK RECEPTION
+ *
+ * This works in polling mode -- the fw loader says when to wait for
+ * data and for that it calls i2400ms_bus_bm_wait_for_ack().
+ *
+ * This will poll the device for data until it is received. We need to
+ * receive at least as much bytes as where asked for (although it'll
+ * always be a multiple of 256 bytes).
