I fixed Javier Martinez email and removed tgih.jun@xxxxxxxxxxx (delivery fail)
Also cc'ing Russell King as I think might help (see my comment below)

I just saw that Russell introduced a patch [1] that will land on 4.6.
I think that patch solves the same issue that we're trying to fix, but
for sdhci controller.

The problem that we have on peach-pi, with our patch applied, is that
when we get a response CRC error on a command and we move to start
sending data, the transfer doesn't receives a timeout interrupt (I
don't know why). As I told, on rockchip works due the DTO quirk.
exynos is not using this quirk. Also, please correct me if I'm wrong,
looks like the sdhci controller has a timer to signal the command
timed out.

ooi, anyone knows what was the test case that caused the necessity of
the DTO quirk?

Yes, the peach pi still break. The one that is hitting is the response
CRC error, so limit the workaround doesn't help.

I can't test this now because I don't have physical access to the
peach-pi. But yeah, this is something to test.
