SDIO has 9 pin, but microSD has only 8 pin.
Not sure how it can work for SDIO.
Before my Neo1973 arrived, I thought that it had one SDIO slot
so that I could bring WiFi functionality with other SDIO WiFi card.
I know SDIO stack and I already ported the Linux driver of one SDIO Wifi card.
Sorry I can tell the chipset vendor.
So if someone could show me the SDIO layout, I may ask my friend to make SDIO
connector for me.
Then I will try to make SDIO work on Neo 1974.
It's fine for me to remove internal Atheros WiFi module.
