Hi,

Here is the new version of the patch, which now uses cpu_relax in an inline 
function. The new function can be used from an irq handler as well.

Regards,
Jean

Subject: [PATCH] OMAP: MMC: Change while(); loops with finite version

Replace the infinite 'while() ;' loops
with a finite loop version.
