Typically, the module vendors have two module versions, one for SDIO
and the other configured for GSPI. They may still be using the same
model number (like XG182).  Before meddling with the software, make
sure that you have the correct GSPI module from zcomax.  From outside,
both the GSPI and SDIO modules look exactly the same.  Probably there
is a small pull-up/down done inside to differentiate it from SDIO to
GSPI.
