Well, is that linux kernel version so important? I can surely say it 
works with 3.12.1.

Porting to 4.0.4 means a (partial) rewrite of some device-tree files. I 
can do in a couple of days if you want. But I think I can check out what 
is really happened in our board. Something related to dma / irq??

In IMX28EVK it works out-of-the-box, in EK340 it does not.

Regarding at the last mail I can clearly see:

On the EK340 I have 3 sdconnector and I use the SDIO3 for wifi. On the 
IMX28EVK I still have only two sd-card connector.
Is it something related to it?

the IRQs number 198 and 199 what do they mean?? How can I check where 
they are claimed??
