As I understand, this patch only purpose is to remove necessity of 
specifying "if=" option for "-drive" command line argument (and 
drive_add HMP/QMP command), this way on a machine with SD card interface 
only you no longer need to write "-drive file=./my.img,if=sd", you can 
just write "-drive file=./my.img"

Christian, if this patch will be accepted, please set IF_SD as default 
for exynos_boards.c
