The changes look very good to me, thanks for helping out! FYI, I did some more thorough analysis of how the block device reference counting/locking should be managed, from a generic point of view. Your change in patch1 fixes the immediate problem with the KASAN splat I reported, but also moves the code in the right direction. However, there are lots of additional improvements that deserve to be made (another possible KASAN splat) for this related mmc code. I am looking into this and will keep you posted. :-) So, this series is applied for fixes and stable tags added for both patches. Again, thanks for helping out! Kind regards Uffe
