Glad to hear that it's working!  :-)

I ran some tests as well but not as elaborate as yours, your tests
were better as it really put the "sd" command to the test.  The basic
sequence I did was

dm 0x80106000
sd write 0x80106000 160 2
fm 0x80106000 0x80106400 0
dm 0x80106000
sd read 0x80106000 160 2
dm 0x80106000

I am almost done with the interface to the onboard eMMC, and I'll most
likely be submitting the patches tomorrow, if not earlier.
