commit c7c6d4f510 upstream.
Due to errata i2493[0], multi-block write would still fail in retries.
With i2493, the MMC interface has the potential of write failures when
issuing multi-block writes operating in HS200 mode with excessive IO
supply noise.
While the errata provides guidance in hardware design and layout to
minimize the IO supply noise, in theory the write failure cannot be
resolved in hardware. The software solution to ensure the data integrity
is to add minimum 5us delay between block writes. Single-block write is
the practical way to introduce the delay.
This patch reuses recovery_mode flag, and switches to single-block
write in retry when multi-block write fails. It covers both CQE and
non-CQE cases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
