To be honest, I did consider similar solution from block layer, I.E set
the seg_boundary_mask, when submitting the workaround last year, but per
my understanding, SDHCI limitation is the physical DMA addr can't span one
specific boundary, so setting seg_boundary_mask w/ blk_queue_segment_boundary
can't work. I'm not sure I understand blk_queue_segment_boundary() properly.
May Christoph help to clarify?

From another side, drivers/ata/libata-sff.c also workaround the 64K phy DMA
boundary limitation itself rather than from block layer.

Thanks
