Hello Pratik! I'm the one who re-wrote Alex Fedorov's SD driver and
submitted it here:

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196081

While I was hoping to resume working on it back in february, my
schedule was way too tight and I couldn't continue. However I'd really
like to see that code make it to the kernel, even if we have to
rewrite some of it.

I don't have time right now for testing it on an actual board, but I'd
be glad to support you on this with anything you may need provided
that you keep Alex, Nicolas and my authorship notes in the code. I
don't know if I qualify to be a GSOC mentor though, as I'm not a
FreeBSD maintainer.

Write me back and we can discuss a bit more of this. The A10 is a bit
tough to support since there's barely any documentation on it, but
with some effort we'll surely make this work.
