MMC host drivers have three main asynchronous event types, that they

This is my attempt to answer my own question:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mmc/8280

All these races are very unlikely, but can be triggered artificially by
inserting a delay in host drivers after mmc_remove_host().

host->bus_dead is set when there are no interesting cards left on the bus. It doesn't mean host driver being removed. Probably, you should use host->removed instead.
