It is not related to your change. I think it is. Since my patch is trying to make it possible to "prevent I/O as soon as possible..." Clearing the detect_change flag here will prevent the I/O layer from doing further tests to see if the card is removed by using "mmc_detect_card_removed -> _mmc_detect_card_removed" due to the upper if sentence. I think this flag should only be cleared from the mmc_rescan function. > >> + ret = mmc_card_removed(card); > > Calling mmc_card_removed() is not needed here since > _mmc_detect_card_removed() does it anyway. > >> + if (!ret) { >> + ret = _mmc_detect_card_removed(host); >> + if (ret) { >> + /* >> + * Schedule a detect work as soon as possible to let a >> + * rescan handle the card removal. >> + */ >> + cancel_delayed_work(&host->detect); > > Why cancel the detect work? To "prevent I/O as soon as possible...". The detect work could have been scheduled to be run at several ms later. There is no need to wait for it since we already now that card will be removed when the rescan function will execute. > >> + mmc_detect_change(host, 0); >> + } >> + } >> >> - return _mmc_detect_card_removed(host); >> + return ret; >> } >> EXPORT_SYMBOL(mmc_detect_card_removed); >> > > Br Ulf Hansson
