Subject: [PATCH 1/4] mmc: Enabled background operations feature if eMMC card supports

Background operations is a new feature defined in eMMC4.41 standard.
Since this feature is opertional for eMMC card, so driver only enable
for those eMMC card which supports this feature

Thanks Park. Can you tell me the testing steps you used?
During the test, has there any background operation been started?
I think two cases can be tested to check whether there is performance improvement or not.
One is doing background operations when card is busy for reading/writing. The other is doing background operations when card is idle.

Thanks

These headers don't belong into a submission. If you use git-send-email,
they get cut off automatically, otherwise just remove them as you paste
the patch into your mail client.

Bit fields are not encouraged for kernel internal data structures,
just use "bool" variables here.

OK. I will remove them when the next submission.

'git send-email' takes care of a lot of other things, too (e.g. chaining
all following messages to the first one) - strong recommendation :)

Is it always wise to set BKOPS_EN to 1 if bkops is supported?
BKOPS_EN=1 will enable periodic background operations. The card will
somehow decide periodically when to start background operations. If
BKOPS_EN=0 the background operations need to be started manually. The
mmc framework could make the decision when to start background
operations.
Using dynamic clock control or suspend/resume may cause the periodic
internal operations to be delayed since it can't run without clocking
or power.
Do you have any test results comparing periodic and manual bkops?
On way forward is to add support for both periodic bkops and manual
bkops and let the device platform_data specify what to use?

BKOP_EN=0 means act like a pre v4.41 device. No maintenance required.
Thanks Bruce for pointing this out to me.

Please discard this comment.

My concern is when to fire BKOPS_START.
Would it make sense to check the BKOPS_STATUS before going to sleep
and start bkops even if level is only "non critical"? This would defer
sleep until bkops are completed.
