Micron MTFC4GACAJCN eMMC supports cache but requires that flush cache
operation be allowed only after a write has occurred. Otherwise, the
cache flush command or subsequent commands will time out.

Changelog:
v3--v4:
1. Add helper function for this quirk in drivers/mmc/core/card.h.
2. Set card->written_flag only for REQ_OP_WRITE.
v2--v3:
1. Set card->written_flag in mmc_blk_mq_issue_rq().
v1--v2:
1. Add Rafael's test-tag, and Co-developed-by.
2. Check host->card whether NULL or not in __mmc_start_request() before asserting host->card->->quirks

It looks superfluous to me to check mmc_card_broken_cache_flush() and
!card->written_flag. Just set the card->written_flag unconditionally.

what did you mean "Just set the card->written_flag unconditionally."?
This means I just need to check card->written_flag and set card-

MMC_QUIRK_BROKEN_CACHE_FLUSH? or don't need to call
mmc_card_broken_cache_flush()?

Here initializes flag and the patch is intenting to eliminate the cache
flush command before writing. what do you mean adding in
mmc_flush_cache()?

I mean skip the checks above and just do the assignment below.

mmc_init_card() is called while initializing and re-initializing the
card. So, it certainly works to reset the flag from here.
However, _mmc_flush_cache() is called before powering off the card,
which then would work similarly to the above, but also gets called for
REQ_OP_FLUSH. Wouldn't that mean that we may be able to skip some
unnecessary/troublesome cache flush requests if we would reset the
flag from mmc_flush_cache(), rather than from mmc_init_card()?
Kind regards

Forgive me if I'm misunderstanding something, but wouldn't resetting the
flag on _mmc_flush_cache()
essentially disable cache when the MMC_QUIRK_BROKEN_CACHE_FLUSH is active?
From what I see, the card->written flag is supposed to stay true until
we need to reinitialize the
eMMC again, otherwise we would be skipping cache flushes we don't want
to skip. It's only before
writing for the first time that we want to skip the flush.

It would, until after there has been a new I/O write. Is that a problem?

If that's really what we want, that's perfectly okay to me. The commit
message isn't really clear about this, so I think that Bean could
improve that too.
I guess we need some kind of confirmation from Bean about this. Don't
get me wrong, I am happy to go with whatever approach as long as it's
clear *why* the selected approach is taken.
Kind regards
