mtd: rawnand: r852: preserve card changes during detection work
This commit serializes card-detect interrupt mask updates under irqlock
and samples card presence once in r852_card_detect_work() to avoid losing
concurrent card state transitions.

[Severity: Medium]
Can r852_update_media_status() observe a different card state than
r852_card_detect_work() when an interrupt fires after
r852_update_card_detect() unmasks card interrupts?
kworker <hardirq>
r852_card_detect_work()
present = r852_card_update_present(dev)
/* present == true */
r852_update_card_detect(dev)
r852_irq()
dev->card_detected = 0
dev->card_unstable = 1
r852_update_media_status(dev)
if (!dev->card_detected)
return; <-- skips reading media status
if (present)
r852_register_nand_device(dev)
Because r852_update_media_status() still checks dev->card_detected while
r852_card_detect_work() branches on present, a removal interrupt during
insertion causes r852_update_media_status() to return early without
updating dev->readonly or dev->sm. r852_register_nand_device() then runs
with stale media properties, enables the hardware engine via
r852_engine_enable(), and fails in sm_register_device() without disabling
the engine on the error1 path; the subsequent delayed work sees
present == dev->card_registered (0 == 0) and exits early, leaving the
engine enabled with no card present.
Conversely, if an insertion interrupt fires while handling a removal
(present == false), r852_update_media_status() sees dev->card_detected set
and reads R852_CARD_STA and R852_DMA_CAP while dev->card_unstable is set
right before r852_unregister_nand_device() runs. Passing present to
r852_update_media_status() (or only calling it when present is true) would
keep both steps consistent.
