Hi Ulf,

   Thanks a lot for the review.

    Sure. I will try to split them into smaller pieces.

   I would like to simply introduce the PHY setting of our SDHC.
   The target of the PHY setting is to achieve a perfect sampling
   point for transfers, during card initialization.

   For HS200/HS400/SDR104 whose SDCLK is more than 50MHz, SDHC HW
   will search for this sampling point with DLL's help.

   For other speed mode whose SDLCK is less than or equals to 50MHz,
   SW has to scan the PHY delay line to find out this perfect sampling
   point. Our driver sends a command to verify a sampling point
   in current environment.

   As result, our SDHC driver has to implement the functionality to
   send commands and check the results, in host layer.
   If directly calling mmc_wait_for_cmd() is improper, could you please
   give us some suggestions?

   For eMMC, CMD8 is used to test current sampling point set in PHY.

   For SDIO, SD_IO_RW_DIRECT command is sent to test current sampling point
   in PHY.
   Please help provide some suggestion to implement the command transfer.

    This card pointer copies the temporary structure mmc_card
    used in mmc_init_card(), mmc_sd_init_card() and mmc_sdio_init_card().
    Since we call mmc_wait_for_cmd() to send test commands, we need a copy
    of that temporary mmc_card here in our host driver.

    During PHY setting in card initialization, mmc_host->card is not updated
    yet with that temporary mmc_card. Thus we are not able to directly use
    mmc_host->card. Instead, this card pointer is introduced to enable
    mmc_wait_for_cmd().

    If we can improve our host driver to send test commands without mmc_card,
    this card pointer can be removed.
    Could you please share your opinion please?

   Sorry about any inconvenience. Most of the functions here are our host specific.
   It is really difficult to understand them without proper comment.
   I will add more information.

   Thank you.
