That would introduce too big changes and I am sure it will cause/hide
other problems.
If there is a problem in __mmc_switch(), let's try to fix it there first.

Exactly in what cases do you get CRC errors for CMD6. We need a full
cmd log to understand and to help.

There is no way I am going to accept patches touching this part of the
mmc core, without providing real evidence for how it solves a problem.
To me, it seems like you are applying a workaround for another issue.
Again, try to provide us with some more data and logs, then perhaps we
can help narrow down the issues.
Kind regards
