Thanks for figuring this out!

When I was upstreaming support, I noticed __sdhci_execute_tuning() in
T-Head's version of sdhci-of-dwcmshc.c seemed to duplicate what already
existed in drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c. I had thought T-Head copied it
because it was a static function.

9cc811a342be ("mmc: sdhci: add __sdhci_execute_tuning() to header")
allowed me to remove __sdhci_execute_tuning() from sdhci-of-dwcmshc.
However, I overlooked this resulted in changing the tuning loop from
128 back to the upstream default of 40.

Before this change, the microSD did work for me on the lpi4 but I would
see the following:

[    4.182483] mmc1: Tuning failed, falling back to fixed sampling clock
[    4.189022] sdhci-dwcmshc ffe7090000.mmc: tuning failed: -11
[    4.194734] mmc1: tuning execution failed: -5
[    4.287899] mmc1: new high speed SDHC card at address aaaa
[    4.299763] mmcblk1: mmc1:aaaa SD32G 29.7 GiB
[    4.316963]  mmcblk1: p1 p2

root@...4amain:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mmc1/ios
clock:		50000000 Hz
actual clock:	49500000 Hz
vdd:		21 (3.3 ~ 3.4 V)
bus mode:	2 (push-pull)
chip select:	0 (don't care)
power mode:	2 (on)
bus width:	2 (4 bits)
timing spec:	2 (sd high-speed)
signal voltage:	0 (3.30 V)
driver type:	0 (driver type B)

With the change to 128, I no longer see the tuning failure and the
microSD continues to work okay:

[    4.307040] mmc1: new ultra high speed SDR104 SDHC card at address aaaa
[    4.320462] mmcblk1: mmc1:aaaa SD32G 29.7 GiB
[    4.338646]  mmcblk1: p1 p2

root@...4amain:/sys/kernel/debug/mmc1# cat ios
clock:		198000000 Hz
actual clock:	198000000 Hz
vdd:		21 (3.3 ~ 3.4 V)
bus mode:	2 (push-pull)
chip select:	0 (don't care)
power mode:	2 (on)
bus width:	2 (4 bits)
timing spec:	6 (sd uhs SDR104)
signal voltage:	1 (1.80 V)
driver type:	0 (driver type B)

This has the benefit of the card now works at 198 MHz in SDR104 mode
instead of 50 MHz when tuning failed.
