[PATCH V5 4/6] mmc: sdhci-esdhc: make the writel/readl as the general APIs

+	struct sdhci_pltfm_host *pltfm_host = sdhci_priv(host);
+	struct pltfm_imx_data *imx_data =
+				(struct pltfm_imx_data *)pltfm_host->scratchpad;
+
Uh, no. Sorry that was a misunderstanding of this:

===
Do you means keep the u32 scratchpad, and use one u32---> pointer exchange, right?
-       u32 scratchpad; /* to handle quirks across io-accessor calls */
+       void *priv; /* to handle quirks across io-accessor calls */
===

When you said "exchanging" 'scratchpad' with a 'void *', I thought you really
meant replacing it in the struct like the diff sketches. Casting a variable to
a struct * is not a good idea. The private structure itself looks okay.
+	struct pltfm_imx_data *imx_data;
+
+	imx_data = kzalloc(sizeof(struct pltfm_imx_data), GFP_KERNEL);
+	pltfm_host->scratchpad = (u32)imx_data;
 
 	clk = clk_get(mmc_dev(host->mmc), NULL);
 	if (IS_ERR(clk)) {
Do that after clk_get, otherwise you leak memory if it clk_get fails.

Regards
