The patchset is in the aspeed-6.0 branch : 

    df91d012672c Cédric Le Goater - hw/arm/aspeed: Load eMMC first boot area as 
a boot rom
    27b75a7ad322 Cédric Le Goater - hw/arm/aspeed: Add eMMC property
    2836cf5a15a1 Joel Stanley - hw/arm/aspeed: Set boot device to emmc
    42c9d57f5cd0 Joel Stanley - sd: mmc: Subtract bootarea size from blk
    218301406607 Joel Stanley - sd: mmc: Support boot area in emmc image
    df0452923b56 Cédric Le Goater - sd: mmc: Add Extended CSD register 
definitions
    416c02bbfd32 Sai Pavan Boddu - sd: mmc: Add mmc switch function support
    a228aef1a209 Sai Pavan Boddu - sd: mmc: add CMD21 tuning sequence
    9b177d7baf8e Sai Pavan Boddu - sd: mmc: Update CMD1 definition for MMC
    6677e4eb6812 Vincent Palatin - sd: add eMMC support
    
Also based on Vincent Palatin initial patches, reworked by Joel and I.

Booting an aspeed machine requires a bit of work since you need to build
an eMMc disk image with uboot in the boot partitions. 

Here is a little script from Joel to get you going.

Thanks,
