Yes, I will try to explain more and focus on common behavior.

yes, few changing (this just avoid to enter in
"if (host->variant->busy_detect)") at each time.
I could move this part in cleanup patch (before this patch)

In mmci_irq the "do while" loops until the status is totally cleared.

Today (for variant with busy_detect option), the status busy_detect_flag
is excluded only while busy_status period (command with MMC_RSP_BUSY and 
while busy line is low => "busy_status=1")

On SDMMC variant I noticed that busy_detect_flag status could be enabled
even if the command is not MMC_RSP_BUSY, for example sdmmc variant stay
in loop while cmd11 voltage switch.

So I wish extend host->variant->busy_detect_flag exclusion for all
commands which is not a MMC_RSP_BUSY. I suppose that other variants
could have the same behavior, and else there is no impact, normally.
