Ok, deadlock naming is perhaps too stronght and scary.

On STM32 SDMMC variant, If datatimeout occurs on R1B request the Data
Path State Machine stays in busy and only the DPSM is non-functional.
The hardware block waits a software action to abort the DPSM.
Like the CPSM stay alive, the framework can sent some requests
(without data, example cmd13:status) before to had this
timeout issue.
POV framework I understand the possibility to have a completion_timeout,
for more safety. But for this specific sdmmc case, I'm not fan, because
the completion timeout error will occur several requests after the real
issue (which put the DPSM non-functional). when the completion timeout
occurs we can't know if it's due to R1B timeout or an other issue.
To resolve the SDMMC's specificity, I can proposed you to add a threaded
irq in mmci drivers to abort the DPSM and terminate the request.
