We haven't had any reports of trouble with the imx6 sd driver.

I would try turning off the DIAGNOSTIC option.  It's really more harmful
than useful on arm.  On armv4 it makes the entire system lock up for
seconds at a time as it runs some really expensive loop to verify
something, I think it may have been VM data structures.  Even on a
faster chip such as imx6 this could cause problems like sdcard timeouts,
as well as making a 2 hour compile take 7 hours.
