mmc: mmc_rescan detects card change in one run
With this patch, mmc_rescan can detect the removal of an mmc card and
the insertion of (possibly another) card in the same run. This means
that a card change can be detected without having to call
mmc_detect_change multiple times.
This change generalises the core such that it can be easily used by
hosts which provide a mechanism to detect only the presence of a card
reader cover, which has to be taken off in order to insert a card. Other
hosts ("card detect" or "MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL") each receive an event when
a card is removed and when a card is inserted, so it is sufficient for
them if mmc_rescan handles only one event at a time. "Cover detect"
hosts, however, only receive events about the cover status. This means
that between 2 subsequent events, both a card removal and a card
insertion can occur. In this case, the pre-patch version of mmc_rescan
would only detect the removal of the previous card but not the insertion
of the new card.
