The issue was initially found by Eric Benard as below.
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/108031
Not sure about other SDHCI based controller, but on Freescale eSDHC,
the SDHCI_INT_CARD_INSERT bits will be immediately set again when it
gets cleared, if a card is inserted. The driver need to mask the irq
to prevent interrupt storm which will freeze the system. And the
SDHCI_INT_CARD_REMOVE gets the same situation.
The patch fixes the problem based on the initial idea from
Eric Benard.
