[PATCH v2 1/2] mmc: core: Validate UHS/DDR/HS200 timing selection for 1-bit bus width
From: Shawn Lin
Date: Mon Mar 09 2026 - 21:36:46 EST
From: Luke Wang <ziniu.wang_1@xxxxxxx>
UHS/DDR/HS200 modes require at least 4-bit bus support. Host controllers
that lack relevant capability registers rely on paring properties provided
by firmware, which may incorrectly set these modes. Now that mmc_validate_host_caps()
has been introduced to validate such configuration violations, let's also
add checks for UHS/DDR/HS200 modes.
This fixes an issue where, if the HS200/HS400 property is set while only
a 1-bit bus width is used, mmc_select_hs200() returns 0 without actually
performing the mode switch. Consequently, mmc_select_timing() proceeds
without falling back to mmc_select_hs(), leaving the eMMC device operating
in legacy mode (26 MHz) instead of switching to High Speed mode (52 MHz).
