I was not removing the card as slowly as you think. It's actually
a normal speed.  That's why I thought your patch breaks the
card-detection functionality before I found the cause.

I do not think it's a proper fixing.

I guess what we need is to call mmc_gpio_get_cd() trying to know card's
presence before sending MMC_SEND_STATUS command.  sdhci-esdhc-imx
driver will surely need some changes to cope with that.
