Dear Ulf, Ludovic, Sorry for top post. I'm under webmail for I have no proper email client now. OOPS, I should ask mmc maintainers and experts for help early. I spent two days to debug the issue then found the two problematic commits. PS: It seems other sdhci-pxav3 users never complained, it's a bit strange ;) Thanks for reviewing this patch, Jisheng ________________________________________ From: Ulf Hansson Sent: Friday, December 11, 2015 22:48 To: Jisheng Zhang; Ludovic Desroches Cc: linux-mmc; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-arm-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] mmc: sdhci: restore behavior when setting VDD via external regulator + Ludovic (We had some discussions around this code recently as well) On 11 December 2015 at 14:36, Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > After commit 52221610dd84 ("mmc: sdhci: Improve external VDD regulator > support"), for the VDD is supplied via external regulators, we ignore > the code to convert a VDD voltage request into one of the standard > SDHCI voltage levels, then program it in the SDHCI_POWER_CONTROL.

I guess we can give it try, unless or until someone reports a problem. Although, I would like to get Ludovic's input on this change, before I decide to do anything.
