If this doesn't work, you may try other values (starting > from 1 till 15) to see setting any of the non-zero value succeeds or not. I tried 1 to 10 (as this is a 4.41 card) and none of them worked (including 7). > > > I hope this problem can be fixed or if it can't, I hope that commit > > > 3d93576e (mmc: core: skip card initialization if power class selection > > > fails) is reverted until the issues are sorted out. > > 3d93576e is really not the issue here. Reverting that patch is just a bad > workaround to the problem. We should actually try to find why exactly > setting the POWER_CLASS field is failing? sure, that would be the best solution...
