Avri, thanks for your patch. Overall this looks good to me.

However things are becoming more and more messy in these layers of the
mmc core. In particular, I would like us to take advantage of the
bus_ops callbacks, when eMMC and/or SD specific features need
different implementations.

I have posted a patch [1], that moves the eMMC cache flushing into a
bus_ops callback. Would you mind rebasing this series on top of that?

Kind regards
Uffe
