Thanks to all that replied. It was the tifm_7xx1 driver it wanted... I missed 
it because the inkernel sdhci one claimed it found something, and the 
tifm_7xx1 module is not in the same place as the other kernel drivers...

(e.g. tifm_7xx1 is configured under misc devices, while sdhci is configured
under MMC/SD card Support).
