This patchset improves the handling around busy detection in the mmc core layer while operating on host supporting MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY. A R1B response is for an mmc command, specified as and R1 but with an optional busy assertion on the DAT0 line. Hosts supporting MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY, normally has a busy detection mechanism build in it's controller HW. Using such a feature decreases the need for polling of the card's status using CMD13, which is the fallback method used by the mmc core for hosts that don't support MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY. Typcial commands that expects R1B responses are CMD6 (SWITCH), CMD12 (STOP), CMD38 (ERASE) and CMD5 (SLEEP). This patchset adresses CMD6, CMD5 and improves some parts where CMD12 are used. If the implemented approach becomes accepted, a future patchset for CMD38 can be based on top if this patchset. Do note, the final two patches implements support for busy detection for the mmci host driver, since some of it's HW variants do supports busy detection. Future suggested improvements related to this patchset: (Please, feel free to implement any of them :-) ). a) For CMD38, select a fixed number maximum blocks to accept for erase/discard/trim operations. Compute the needed timeout depending on each card's erase information provided through it's CSD/EXT_CSD registers. Then follow the same principle as for sending a CMD6. b) At least for CMD38, but likely for other commands as well, we could benefit from doing a _periodic_ CMD13 polling to handle the busy completion. This will also be useful for hosts supporting MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY, in particular for cases where the host are unable to support the needed busy timeout. c) Handle timeouts while polling for card's status with CMD13 in cases where a CMD12 has been used to finalize a data DATA_WRITE transfer.
