Are you sure the delay is caused by mmc?

On my intel laptop (userspace is Debian/unstable):
[    1.542339] EXT4-fs (sda2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: 
(null)
...
[    2.735851] mmc0: new high speed SD card at address e624
[    2.742289] mmcblk0: mmc0:e624 SU02G 1.84 GiB 
[    2.752317]  mmcblk0: p1

Chris, could provide a pointer on how to improve the patch?

Maybe introduce mmc_is_hosting_root() and do something like:

-       mmc_flush_scheduled_work();
+       if (mmc_is_hosting_root())
+               mmc_flush_scheduled_work();
