4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alek Du <alek.du@xxxxxxxxx> commit b704441e38f645dcfba1348ca3cc1ba43d1a9f31 upstream. We observed some premature timeouts on a virtualization platform, the log is like this: case 1: [159525.255629] mmc1: Internal clock never stabilised. [159525.255818] mmc1: sdhci: ============ SDHCI REGISTER DUMP =========== [159525.256049] mmc1: sdhci: Sys addr: 0x00000000 | Version: 0x00001002 ... [159525.257205] mmc1: sdhci: Wake-up: 0x00000000 | Clock: 0x0000fa03 >From the clock control register dump, we are pretty sure the clock was stablized. case 2: [ 914.550127] mmc1: Reset 0x2 never completed. [ 914.550321] mmc1: sdhci: ============ SDHCI REGISTER DUMP =========== [ 914.550608] mmc1: sdhci: Sys addr: 0x00000010 | Version: 0x00001002 After checking the sdhci code, we found the timeout check actually has a little window that the CPU can be scheduled out and when it comes back, the original time set or check is not valid.
