We should remove retries for CMD6 and perhaps also for some other cases. When we have changed the above in __mmc_switch(), the change Chaotian suggest gets a different impact, as it would potentially allow a re-tuning to happen before the next CMD1to poll for busy or to check the switch status. This isn't okay. This all sounds to me that Chaotian's issue may not all be related to tuning, but to the CMD6 switch sequence itself. However I may be wrong - of course. :-) [...] Kind regards Uffe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
