The sdhci_execute_tuning routine gets lock separately by disable_irq(host->irq); spin_lock(&host->lock); It will cause the following lockdep error message since the &host->lock could also be got in irq context. Use spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_restore instead to get rid of this error message.

And looking at the code, before call spin_lock we already disable the mmc controller irq, per on my understanding, the deadlock given by lockdep may not be able to happen(pls fix me if wrong). May the lockdep not track the specific irq disable?
