That is not how mmc_retune_hold() works, you need mmc_retune_hold_now() as
it is here:

https://marc.info/?l=linux-mmc&m=148940903816582

But using "retries" with commands that have busy-waiting on the data line
doesn't make much sense anyway. Particularly with CRC errors, I would
expect the card is actually busily doing the switch and we need only to wait
for it. The same can be true for timeout errors. For some CMD6 we might
need to send CMD12 if the card is busy after an error. I would prefer an
explicit attempt at recovery from CMD6 errors.
