[Regression?] qemu-system-arm flooding "sd_write_data: not in Receiving-Data state"

(Forgive the duplicate, I forgot to cc lkml)

I was testing v3.15-rc1 in my qemu-system-arm environment and noticed a
flood of the following messages:
sd_write_data: not in Receiving-Data state

After looking around in the kernel and not finding such a message, I
realized this was actually a message from qemu, not the kernel.

The system seems to boot normally, but is just very noisy w/ the qemu
messages.

Not sure if this is really a problem with qemu-system-arm, but this
doesn't occur w/ 3.14 and previous kernels.

Bisecting it down pointed to:

mmc: mmci: Handle CMD irq before DATA irq
In case of a read operation both MCI_CMDRESPEND and MCI_DATAEND
can be
set in the status register when entering the interrupt handler. This is
due to that the card start sending data before the host has
acknowledged the command response.
To resolve the issue for this scenario, we must start by
handling the
CMD irq instead of the DATA irq. The reason is beacuse the completion
of the DATA irq will not respect the current command and then causing
it to be garbled.
