Indeed, maybe the "too late" here is not accurate. Compared with host's
CD interrupt handling, the GPIO CD interrupt handling differs in when to
call sdhci_card_event(): in previous case, it's called in ISR, in later
it's in workqueue.

Now, I agree it's not necessary to put into ISR. So let's ignore the
two patches.

Thanks for your review,
