[PATCH v2 2/2] mmc: rtsx_usb_sdmmc: suppress false CD after init timeout
From: Sean Rhodes
Date: Mon Jul 06 2026 - 12:13:35 EST
Some Realtek USB SD readers with a tray keep raw SD_CD asserted
when an empty tray is inserted. The MMC core then repeatedly tries to
initialize non-existent media, sees command timeouts, calls ->get_cd()
again, and starts the same detect cycle over.
Do not qualify media by open-coding MMC commands in ->get_cd().
Instead, let the normal MMC rescan path probe the card. If an
initialization command times out before a card has been attached,
suppress the raw SD_CD signal so the host can settle and the USB
parent can autosuspend.
Clear the suppression only when raw SD_CD drops. On the affected tray
reader, changing media requires removing and reinserting the tray, so
a low CD transition is the signal that a new insertion attempt can be
trusted again.
