Dear All,

Any feedback about this patch?

> This patch changes sdhci_init()'s behavior to NOT enable all interrupt
> sources by default. Moreover interrupt signaling has been disabled.
> 
> This patch do not enable interrupts which aren't served in u-boot
> (they are defined at sdhci.h but NOT used elsewhere):
> - SDHCI_INT_CARD_INSERT, SDHCI_INT_CARD_REMOVE, SDHCI_BUS_POWER,
>   SDHCI_INT_CARD_REMOVE, SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT
> 
> Special care shall be put on SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT, which indicates
> interrupt generated by SD card.
> According to "SD Host Controller Simplified Spec. ver 3.00" when bit 8
> (Card Interrupt Status Enable) at "Normal Interrupt Status Enable
> Register" (offset 0x34) is set, the card interrupt detection is
> started. Then eMMC card may cause the SD controller to set this bit
> and then this interrupt is passed to booted OS and might cause kernel
> crash.
> 
> 
> To sum up:
> - Only enable interrupts, which are served at u-boot
> - This cleanup as a side effect fixes SDHCI's CARD INTERRUPT problem
> at Linux kernel (versions 3.6+, sdhci controller)
> - Keep masked bits at "Normal Interrupt Signal Enable
> Register" (0x38h)
