[PATCH v9 00/12] use nonblock mmc requests to minimize latency

I'm not sure who's responsible for this, but the nonblocking MMC stuff is
broken on OMAPs HSMMC:

mmcblk0: error -84 transferring data, sector 149201, nr 64, cmd response 0x900, card status 0xb00

Luckily thinks continue to work, but clearly releasing DMA mappings which
drivers don't own is bad news.  Unfortunately, I don't have the bandwidth
to be able to investigate this at present - well, I could do but then I'd
have to drop working on the OMAP4 vs generic suspend/resume code and learn
about something I've no current clue about.

Can someone please investigate and fix whatever is broken.
