Actually there are no documentation said that the
mmc_host_ops->request() is a sleepable API, so I introduce a
host->always_defer_done flag to decide if the request can be called in
interrupt context or not, since for some host drivers, the request()
implementation can be called in interrupt context.

Yes, I agree a new host API is more reasonable, if you do not like the
current approach, I can add new patches to introduce the new
request_atomic() API. But can I create another separate patch set to
do this? since in this patch set, the Spreadtrum host driver's
request() implementation can be called in interrupt context. Or you
still want these changes introducing new request_atomic() can be done
in this patch set? Thanks.
