We all appreciate this! In this regard, I believe I have tried to guide you on how to move forward with this. This particular optimization doesn't belong in an mmc host driver, but rather at the common upper block device driver layer, such that it can benefit more than one particular mmc host driver. I fully understand that making that kind of improvement is way more difficult and requires in-depth analysis to understand what is happening on those layers too. On the other hand it could be something that may benefit a lot of devices/platforms. Unfortunately, I am currently not in a position where I have the bandwidth to dive deeper into this. If you decide to pursue your investigations, I think we need to involve the experts from the common block community (linux-block mailing list) to get their advice. So to be clear, I am not going to apply $subject patch - or anything similar to an mmc host driver. [...] Kind regards Uffe
