Description Sergey Yanovich 2007-05-01 01:54:31 UTC 
Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: n/a
Distribution: n/a
Hardware Environment: i386, Pentium M, Sony laptop, a slow MMC card
Software Environment: console shell
Problem Description:
This may well be not bug, but a normal behavior of an mmc driver. My version in
bug 8352 was using a different card probing technique (mmc_rescan), which was
synchronous.

The issue is raised to check for consistency with the rest of the MMC kernel
subsystem. Just close this if asynchronous probing is normal.

Steps to reproduce:
modprobe tifm_sd; test -b /dev/mmcblk0p1

This is by design. Closing bug as WILL_NOT_FIX.
