Has this been fully build-tested?

===
drivers/mmc/host/renesas_sdhi_internal_dmac.c: In function ‘renesas_sdhi_internal_dmac_complete_work_fn’:
./include/linux/container_of.h:20:54: error: ‘struct tmio_mmc_host’ has no member named ‘dma_complete’
===

In deed, 'dma_complete' is only in 'struct renesas_sdhi_dma'. From
there, we can get to the parent 'struct renesas_sdhi' using
container_of. But then, I don't see a way to go to 'struct
tmio_mmc_host' from there. The other way around is possible because
there is the pointer 'struct tmio_mmc_data *pdata' in the TMIO struct
pointing to the data contained in 'struct renesas_sdhi'. 'host_to_priv()'
does the math. But I don't see a path the other way around.

So, it doesn't look like the workqueue interface can provide a
generic pointer like tasklets could do? This means we have to add a
pointer from 'struct renesas_sdhi' to 'struct tmio_mmc_host'?

All the best,
