If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <sta...@kernel.org> know about it. >From b78d6c5f51935ba89df8db33a57bacb547aa7325 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yusuke Goda <yusuke.goda...@renesas.com> Date: Thu, 9 Sep 2010 16:37:39 -0700 Subject: tmio_mmc: don't clear unhandled pending interrupts From: Yusuke Goda <yusuke.goda...@renesas.com> commit b78d6c5f51935ba89df8db33a57bacb547aa7325 upstream. Previously, it was possible for ack_mmc_irqs() to clear pending interrupt bits in the CTL_STATUS register, even though the interrupt handler had not been called. This was because of a race that existed when doing a read-modify-write sequence on CTL_STATUS. After the read step in this sequence, if an interrupt occurred (causing one of the bits in CTL_STATUS to be set) the write step would inadvertently clear it. Observed with the TMIO_STAT_RXRDY bit together with CMD53 on AR6002 and BCM4318 SDIO cards in polled mode. This patch eliminates this race by only writing to CTL_STATUS and clearing the interrupts that were passed as an argument to ack_mmc_irqs()."
