Subject: [PATCHv3 1/2] mmc: block: Remove error check of hw_reset on reset

Before switching back to the right partition in mmc_blk_reset
there used to be a check if hw_reset was even supported.
This return value was removed, so there is no reason to check.
Furthermore ensure part_curr is not falsely set to a valid value
on reset or partition switch error.

This looks good to me, however I am awaiting and ack from Adrian
before applying, to make sure we are all aligned with the approach.

Kind regards

Right, very good point!

Yes! And the comment is valuable too!

This forces a partition switch even if it is not necessary.

This would be better:

/*
* A successful reset will leave the card in the main partition, but
* upon failure it might not be, so set it to MMC_BLK_PART_INVALID
* in that case.
*/
main_md->part_curr = err ? MMC_BLK_PART_INVALID : main_md->part_type;

> + return err;

There was a time when mmc requests would be retried directly without
going back through the block layer. I don't think that can happen
anymore after a failed reset. However, if you are going to skip the
partition switch, the commit message needs to explain that you have
checked the code paths and we never retry a request directly after a
failed reset. Also a comment is needed to say the same.

Don't really need part_err. i.e. could be

if (mmc_blk_part_switch(host->card, md->part_type) {
