There should have been a v2 in the patch description. It lets reviewers
know that they have seen this patch before and its not the same thing. I
would have preferred you had me test this before posting it to the
mailing list. Otherwise there should be a "not tested" in the description.

chan is not being used in this function.

I think you wanted to initialize this one.

flags is not declared.

This doesn't even build. sdhci_tasklet_finish is declared below this. In
the future, if you don't have a platform to test things on, at least
build and use checkpatch before posting it to the mailing list.

Should we even be calling a tasklet callback function directly?
Shouldn't we do a tasklet_schedule()?
