SubjectRE: [PATCH v2] mmc: sdhci: restore behavior when setting VDD via external regulator
Date
Dear Ulf, Ludovic,

Sorry for top post. I'm under webmail for I have no proper email client now.

OOPS, I should ask mmc maintainers and experts for help early. I spent two
days to debug the issue then found the two problematic commits.

PS: It seems other sdhci-pxav3 users never complained, it's a bit strange ;)

Thanks for reviewing this patch,
Jisheng

My concern with this patch is that it might fix the problem for your
SDHCI variant, but will break it for others.
I guess we can give it try, unless or until someone reports a problem.

Although, I would like to get Ludovic's input on this change, before I
decide to do anything.

Kind regards
Uffe
