Ok, lets stick with what we have for now.
Its a fairly trivial change to update the arguments later
if that is wanted. Testing is slightly less trivial
due to availability of hardware, but not a major problem.

Can you Acked-by, or Reviewed-by the patches in this series if
you are now happy with them?

I was probably the person who pointed that out to you.
I'm unsure of the reason, but at least in its current form
it appears not to be related to the parameters involved.

The writew() -> sd_ctrl_write16() change is made by the following patch
in the series, "[PATCH 2/5] mmc: tmio: Share register access functions".

The last hunk looks like this:
