[PATCH 0/2] Improve request handling code flow and clarify function naming for dw_mmc

[Shawn Lin]

This patch series aims to simplify the request handling logic and enhance
code readability in the dw_mmc driver by addressing suboptimal function
naming and unnecessary abstraction layers.

The dw_mmc's request handling routines currently include multiple functions
with confusing names and redundant responsibilities:
- dw_mci_request() serves as the mmc_host_ops entry point.
- dw_mci_queue_request() was used for queuing requests, but with the removal of
  multi-slot support, it no longer performs any meaningful queuing operations.
- dw_mci_start_request() acts as a thin wrapper around __dw_mci_start_request(),
  adding unnecessary indirection.
- __dw_mci_start_request() contains the actual core implementation.

This naming hierarchy not only obscures the true function roles but also creates
a misleading impression of queuing behavior, which no longer exists. Simplifying
this flow and aligning names with actual functionality significantly improves
code clarity and maintainability.



Shawn Lin (2):
  mmc: dw_mmc: Inline dw_mci_queue_request() into dw_mci_request()
  mmc: dw_mmc: Remove dw_mci_start_request wrapper and rename core
    function
