Yes, that's the existing implementation, which does not require retry
sending MMC_SEND_STATUS to know if card is removed.

I just tracked it down a little bit.  Interesting enough, it depends on
how I remove the card.  If I do it slowly, when the gpio interrupt
triggers the MMC_SEND_STATUS query, the command can still retrieve
the card status successfully.  Thus driver does not detect the card
removal.  If I remove the card from slot quickly, I can see the removal
message.

With your patch series, in ESDHC_CD_GPIO case the driver will have
to send MMC_SEND_STATUS (with retry) to card for knowing its presence.
This is also an unpleasant behavior comparing to the existing code.
I think we should query gpio state to know card presence for this case.
