Hi Russell,
Thanks for the review.
I mean using the exist flag to do like:
if (imx_data->socdata->flags & ESDHC_FLAG_SUP_HS400)
writel(0x10401040, host->ioaddr + ESDHC_WTMK_LVL);
else
writel(0x08100810, host->ioaddr + ESDHC_WTMK_LVL);
Not adding another new flag.
ESDHC_FLAG_SUP_HS400 represents the new feature support of HS400 which is
already added in patch

I understand your concern for the potential bad situation.
Here the watermark level setting of mx7d is dependant on the new feature
of HS400, so it seems make senese to use that flag to set value and does
not need adding new flag.
Actually that is the current approach for uSDHC driver to distinguish
the difference between register offset/settings by checking feature flags.
e.g. ESDHC_FLAG_USDHC, ESDHC_FLAG_STD_TUNING, ESDHC_FLAG_HS200 and etc.
This approach can save us a lot more flags for SoC checking for common
feature part. And up till now, things seem good.
If really new SoC comes while it requires a different value, if it's feature
dependant, we may still use feature flag for it.
If not, probably a quirk may be needed if it's IP limitation.
If it's normal situation and such situation happened too many in the future,
we may choose to parameterise all these normal feature independent settings
into esdhc_soc_data to avoid adding meaningless flags.
e.g.
static struct esdhc_soc_data usdhc_imx6sx_data = {
.flags = ESDHC_FLAG_USDHC | ESDHC_FLAG_STD_TUNING
| ESDHC_FLAG_HAVE_CAP1 | ESDHC_FLAG_HS200,
.wml = 32,
};
static struct esdhc_soc_data usdhc_imx7d_data = {
.flags = ESDHC_FLAG_USDHC | ESDHC_FLAG_STD_TUNING
| ESDHC_FLAG_HAVE_CAP1 | ESDHC_FLAG_HS200,
.wml = 64,
};
But currently i still did not see such urgent requirement to do it for only
water mark level settings.
