What do you think about:
+       struct sdio_func *func = card->sdio_single_irq;
+
+       /*
+        * Optimization, if there is only 1 function interrupt registered
+        * call irq handler directly
+        */
+       if (func) {
+               func->irq_handler(func);
+               return 1;
+       }

-                       struct sdio_func *func = card->sdio_func[i - 1];
+                       func = card->sdio_func[i - 1];
