I am a bit concerned about performance, especially when operating on
small packets.
Previously we already sent a CMD13 after each write, thus this change
will have no effect on write performance. But for read, this will add
a CMD13 check after each request. Have you made any performance
measurement - how big is the impact? It is certainly interested to
know before proceeding.

Do we have to issue a CMD13 (get_card_status), even if we are using
the open-ended transmission sequence? In other words, could we make
use of the response from CMD12 (stop transmission) instead?
