I may be looking at an out of date SD Host Controller Spec, but can you
point me at the place where it says that it's ok to retry the CMD12 if
it failed? I can find the part explaining that you can issue CMD13 to
see if CMD12 really failed or not, but not the place where it says you
can reissue CMD12.

In your testcase, do you always end up issuing the second CMD12?

Are you sure that this recovery procedure is not valid over SPI when
doing a multiblock read?

"successfull" should be "successful"

I'm not entirely sure any of these errors are needed. The code below
this in drivers/mmc/card/block.c will print an error message if
brq.stop.error is non-zero (and we will have left it non-zero if we
haven't recovered).
