Subject: [PATCH RESEND] mmc: Delay the card_event callback into the mmc_rescan worker

This change removes the callback from atomic context which it doesn't
need to be in, and puts it in line with the debounced rescan.

This code is based on these e-mail threads with Christian Daudt:

So this might be a stupid question. :-)

Could you elaborate on why the host->ops->card_event then is needed at
all. Why can't host drivers use host->ops->get_cd to perform the
actions they need?

The reason for bringing this up, is because this patch moves the
invokes of the these callbacks quite close to each other. Earlier they
were more separated.

Kind regards

Thanks for the question. I looked at the code and I don't think
host->ops->get_cd would work in my case.

I proposed this change based on behaviour exhibited by
sdhci-bcm-kona.c (mutex sleeps in the IRQ handler cause "scheduling
while atomic" errors). The idea of this patch is to move the card
event processing (which does the actual card detection) out of the
interrupt handler, so the mutex in my callback can be used without
problems.

https://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/broadcom/kernel.git/blob/refs/heads/review/mmc-card-event:/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-bcm-kona.c#l160

An earlier proposal to fix this issue was to simply replace the mutex
with a spinlock in sdhci-bcm-kona.c, but that was not seen as good
solution. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/5/527)

Based on your question, I looked through the code some more. From what
I can tell, SDHCI hosts have their host->ops->get_cd set to
sdhci_get_cd() in sdhci.c (specifically by sdhci_add_host()). So,
get_cd is not available to me to customize.

Maybe we need a different solution from what I proposed above, but I
don't think get_cd will do the trick.

I can see how moving card_event and get_cd closer together, like I
have done, can be a reason for concern. On the flip-side, de-coupling
card_event from IRQ processing seems to be beneficial.

What do you think?

Regards,
-Markus
