MMC: PL180: Fix infinite loop with VExpress extended fifo implementation
The new IO FPGA implementation for Versatile Express contains an MMCI (PL180) cell with the FIFO extended to 128 words. This causes the read_bytes() function to go into an infinite loop; as it will wait for for the half-full signal (SDI_STA_RXFIFOBR) if there are more than 8 words remaining (SDI_FIFO_BURST_SIZE), but it won't receive this signal once there are fewer than 64 words left to transfer. One possible fix is to add some build time configuration to change SDI_FIFO_BURST_SIZE for the new implementation. However, the problematic code only seems to exist as a small performance optimisation, so the solution implemented by this patch is to simply remove it. The error checking following the loop is also removed as this will be handled by code further down the function.
