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.
