Yes with that change, the re-tuning reliability test does pass.

Unfortunately I still see the error when looping on RPMB reads.

For instance with this test script
 $ while true; do rpmb_read m4hash; usleep 300; done

I can see the error triggering on the serial port after a minute or so.
[  151.682907] sdhci-arasan ff160000.mmc: __mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd: data error -84

Causing OP-TEE to panic since the RPMB read returns an error

if anything else springs to your mind I am happy to test of course - there are
so many tunnables in this subsystem that experience is this area has exponential
value (and I dont have much).

Would it make sense if re-tuning requests are rejected unless a minimum number
of jiffies have passed? should I try that as a change?

or maybe delay a bit longer the RPMB access after a retune request?
