Can you elaborate a bit more about the last sentence, please?

What I meant above is that
         sdhci_set_ios(host, power_mode, vdd1, vdd2) in ush2_do_set_ios()

this code will 'set_power' both vdd and vdd2 anyway and so
         sdhci_set_ios(host, power_mode, vdd1, -1); in sdhci_set_ios(), and
is just redundant.

I'm asking you.

While calling set_ios() doesn't require spin locks, are you aware of
any cases where we need spin locks in calling set_ios() for uhs-2?
(I mean that callers/contexts are the same either for uhs or uhs-2.)
