Thanks a lot for the review and for offering to tag the patches for stable.

I have made sure every patch in the series now carries a proper Fixes tag.
This is the only change in v6, there are no functional changes.

The Fixes mapping is as follows:

  Patch 1 (remove mmc_card_wake_sdio_irq check for tuning save/restore):
    Fixes: c63d25cdc59a ("mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: Save tuning value when
    card stays powered in suspend")   -> first appeared in v6.16

  Patches 2-8 (all the DLL/pinctrl/irq/PM error-handling fixes):
    Fixes: 676a83855614 ("mmc: host: sdhci-esdhc-imx: refactor the system
    PM logic")                         -> first appeared in v6.16

So the whole series only needs to reach v6.16 and later stable kernels.

I have verified the backport to v6.16.y. As you already suspected, the
extensive changes do not cherry-pick entirely cleanly: there are two
trivial, non-functional context conflicts:

  - v6.16 still has the explicit pm_runtime_mark_last_busy(dev) call in
    sdhci_esdhc_resume(), which should be kept when applying patch 2.
  - An unrelated later refactor of the suspend pinctrl path is not
    present in v6.16, so patch 7 applies to the plain unconditional
    pinctrl_pm_select_sleep_state() call there.

I am happy to send a dedicated 6.16.y backport if the automatic pick fails.

Thanks
Luke Wang
