I will check that out Mark.

I did notice that there was discussion a while back about "dummy regulators". I think that might work -- has anyone tried this approach?

The twl regulator support must be compiled in to support the MMC reader. How do I go about
creating an "always on" or "not managed" VMMC so that the device operates properly?

Use a fixed voltage regulator, or if you don't have any software controllable regulators in your system at all then just disable the regulator API and it should stub itself out to look like a fixed voltage regulator.

That's implemented but isn't really relevant if you're not using regulators on your system. It's also a bit of a stopgap solution - it papers over the issue at runtime but ideally the code would make it clear that everything is working correctly.
