I agree that doing retries in this path might may not be correctly
done, but currently we do it as best effort.
We should probably change this to *not* retry the CMD6 command, in
cases when we have a MMC_RSP_R1B response, because of the reasons you
describe.
I get the feeling that these retry attempts for CMD6, may instead hide
other real issues and making it harder to narrow them down. Don't you
think?
This leads to my following question:
Why do you get a CRC error at the first CMD6 attempt? That shouldn't
happen, right?
Perhaps you can elaborate on what of the CMD6 commands in the HS400
enabling sequence that fails. It may help us to understand, perhaps
there may be something in that sequence that should be changed.

Yes, agree!
However, can you please try to point out some other commands than CM6
that you see uses *retries*, has R1B response, and which you believe
may not be properly managed.
Dealing with R1B responses isn't always straight forward. Therefore I
am wondering whether we perhaps should just not allow "automatic
retries" in cases when R1B responses is used.
The reason why I think that is easier, is because of the complexity we
have when dealing with R1B responses.
As for example the timeout may differ depending on the command, so
just guessing that 500 ms might work, isn't good enough. Moreover we
would need to deal with MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY, etc. Currently I am
not saying that we shouldn't do this, but then I first need to
understand how big of problem this is.
