Re: [PATCH 1/1] MMC: new version of the TI Flash Media card reader driver

["Fabio Comolli" <fabio.comolli@gmail.com>]

Hi.
I just wanted to let you know that I tested the version found in
git-mmc.patch (from latest -mm kernel) with kernel version
2.6.20-rc3-g6a4306b3 (2 or 3 days ago Linus' GIT tree).

No problems so far: the driver seems pretty stable: it survived
various suspend-to-ram and suspend-to-disk attempts without a single
problem, even with the card inserted and filesystem mounted.

Tests were performed with a 2GB SD card, a 512MB MMC card and with a
256 mini-SD.

Best regards,
Fabio
