[PATCH v2 01/12] mmc: add none blocking mmc request function

From: Per Forlin
Date: Wed Apr 06 2011 - 15:07:55 EST


Previously there has only been one function mmc_wait_for_req
to start and wait for a request. This patch adds
* mmc_start_req - starts a request wihtout waiting
* mmc_wait_for_req_done - waits until request is done
* mmc_pre_req - asks the host driver to prepare for the next job
* mmc_post_req - asks the host driver to clean up after a completed job

The intention is to use pre_req() and post_req() to do cache maintenance
while a request is active. pre_req() can be called while a request is active
to minimize latency to start next job. post_req() can be used after the next
job is started to clean up the request. This will minimize the host driver
request end latency. post_req() is typically used before ending the block
request and handing over the buffer to the block layer.

Add a host-private member in mmc_data to be used by
pre_req to mark the data. The host driver will then
check this mark to see if the data is prepared or not.
