noio_flag = memalloc_noio_save();blocks = kmalloc(resp_sz, GFP_KERNEL);Could have memalloc_noio_restore() here:
memalloc_noio_restore(noio_flag);but I feel maybe adding something like:
u64 __aligned(8) tiny_io_buf;to either struct mmc_card or struct mmc_host is better? Ulf, any thoughts?
I have no strong opinion.
A third option could be to allocate the buffer dynamically in the struct mmc_card when probing the mmc block device driver, based on mmc_card_sd() returning true.
if (mmc_card_sd()) card->io_buf = devm_kmalloc(&card->dev, 4, GFP_KERNEL);
Kind regards Uffe
