+      <p>The driver is implemented as an extension to the existing MMC
+	bus, adding a lot of new SDIO-specific bus methods.  Getting
+	information about the card works, including querying all the
+	supported I/O functions.  Simple byte transfers and multi-byte
+	reads work.</p>
+
+      <p>A prototype of the driver for Marvell SDIO WLAN/BT module is
+	also being developed, using the existing Linux driver as a
+	reference.</p>
