That should do it!

Not yet. :-)

I suspect you are using a delayed work in this driver to deal with
request timeouts.

The value for the delay that is used, needs to be informed towards the
mmc core via the "->max_busy_timeout".

One more thing, as the documentation of your host controllers lacks
some information about the busy mode, perhaps it's worth to add some
comments about this in the code and as well in the change-log!?

Kind regards
