This needs some more explanation I think. What does "after a write" really mean?

According to the changes below, we are tracking only whether a write
has been done and then we set host->card->written_flag = true - keep
it like that forever.

What happens beyond a power cycle for example? Like in the recovery
path or in the system wide suspend/resume path? Does the flag need to
be reset in those cases too?

Kind regards
Uffe
