Do you realise that the standard MMCI from ARM Ltd can /only/ perform power-of-2 block transfers? Hence, NAK on this change as it stands.
Thankyou for the feedback.

Yes, I noticed that in pl180 TRM. I agree this patch will break standard MMCI. In the past Ulf Hansson and Stefan Nilsson have submitted a patch to fix this issue for ux500v2. This patch adds new flag non_power_of_2_blksize / any_blksize to variant_data. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mmc/msg12160.html http://marc.info/?l=linux-mmc&m=131710963908853&w=2 This patch will fix the issue for Qcom too. If you are Ok with adding new flag non_power_of_2_blksize/any_blksize in the variant_data, I can rebase and include Ulf's patch in next version. thanks, --srini > > Hence, NAK on this change as it stands. > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

It makes non-2^n support the exception rather than the rule and applies only to the variants relevant so the logic is right.
