This is because SDHCI is using the IRQ thread to process the SDIO card
interrupt (sdio_run_irqs()).  When the card driver tries to use the card, it
causes interrupts which deadlocks since c07a48c26519 ("mmc: sdhci: Remove
finish_tasklet") has moved the tasklet processing to the IRQ thread.

I would expect to be able to use the IRQ thread to complete requests, and it
is desirable to do so because it is lower latency.

Probably, SDHCI should use sdio_signal_irq() which queues a work item, and
is what other drivers are doing.

I will investigate some more and send a patch.

Please try the patch below:

Finally got time to update my kernel to 5.2-rc2. This patch indeed resolves the issue.

Thanks,
