I've recently spent some time looking through the Android tree, and while there are some controversial interface changes, there are also a number of patches which look to be simply fixes that have not yet made it upstream. In order to make sure these fixes don't get overlooked, I'm trying to filter out these small changes into narrowly scoped topic branches then sending them out for review and comment. Now, I'm not proposing that these changes be merged as-is. It may very well be that, unknown to me, android developers have already tried to submit these patches and they have been rejected for good reason. Or some patches may very well be necessary hacks to get thing shipping while deeper fixes are being worked on. If that is the case, let me know and forgive me for the noise. Authors: In many cases, the patches are lacking good commit messages, so I cannot advocate for them very well. Your assistance in answering questions that come up would be appreciated. Maintainers: If you do find any of these patches distasteful, that's fine, I'll be happy to drop them from my tree for now. I really don't want to stir up another huge mail thread over these small patches, but I'd appreciate if you'd consider them as a bug report illustrating an issue or a desired feature, and suggest what you see as a reasonable way to accomplish the desired functionality presented in the patch. The following patches are general MMC changes: The first three look like fairly straightforward fixes. The second three introduce a paranoid init option which retries a few times on failure. The #ifdefs clearly need to be cleaned up, but I wanted to send it out for comment on the basic functionality. You can also find the other trivial tree branches I'm working on here (fair warning, I re-base this tree frequently): http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=people/jstultz/android-trivial.git;a=summary thanks -john CC: Chris Ball <cjb@xxxxxxxxxx> CC: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> CC: Dima Zavin <dima@xxxxxxxxxxx> CC: Bentao Zou <bzou1@xxxxxxxxxxxx> CC: David Ding <david.j.ding@xxxxxxxxxxxx> CC: San Mehat <san@xxxxxxxxxx> CC: Colin Cross <ccross@xxxxxxxxxxx> CC: Todd Poynor <toddpoynor@xxxxxxxxxx> Colin Cross (1): mmc_block: Allow more than 8 partitions per card David Ding (1): mmc: block: Resume multi-block reads after transient read errors.
