It's certainly a very positive thing that your target is to upstream
solutions that improve performance. We all appreciate this!

In this regard, I believe I have tried to guide you on how to move
forward with this. This particular optimization doesn't belong in an
mmc host driver, but rather at the common upper block device driver
layer, such that it can benefit more than one particular mmc host
driver.

I fully understand that making that kind of improvement is way more
difficult and requires in-depth analysis to understand what is
happening on those layers too. On the other hand it could be something
that may benefit a lot of devices/platforms. Unfortunately, I am
currently not in a position where I have the bandwidth to dive deeper
into this.

If you decide to pursue your investigations, I think we need to
involve the experts from the common block community (linux-block
mailing list) to get their advice.

So to be clear, I am not going to apply $subject patch - or anything
similar to an mmc host driver.

[...]

Kind regards
Uffe
