There is a debug message on array_info content available at the end of
gpiod_get_array(), could you please activate it and post the message so
we can understand better what is going on?

On the other hand, I've had a look your device-tree configuration and
it looks like that specific setup won't benefit from the fast bitmap path.
You have pin 2 at position 0 and pin 1 at position 1 of the array.
Hence, the fast bitmap path covers only pin 1, and pin 2 is processed
by the old path with apparently buggy code for skipping over fast pins.

As a temporary workaround, you could try to revert the order of pins in
your dts file (pin 1 at position 0, pin 2 at 1) and the mmc pwrseq code
should work for you again by taking the original old path, not skipping
over fast pins.  Results of such check may also help us to better
understand and resolve the issue.

Thanks,
Janusz
