If you want to use the upper mode than UHS-DDR50 for SD-card, you need to apply the below patch.

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7456121/

Actually, this is not relevant to HLE error.

When sd-card is inserted/removed quickly, then sometime dwmmc controller is occurred the HLE error.
(Now, i can't see HLE error.)
So i had applied the some reset processing at my official repository.(It's not generic solution.)

If HLE error will be reproduce with the generic sequence, I think we can find the generic solution.
So could you explain to me in more detail? If i can reproduce with v3.18, i will try to test it.
Your case will be helpful to me for solving the HLE error.
