Isn't it time to get rid of tasklets for tmio?

No worries, I don't require that to be changed prior $subject patch,
however using threaded IRQs is a justified modernization for the tmio
variants.

Yeah, I also thought this.

But, the irq handler is in the TMIO common code,
so it would affect Renesas code.
Yep.
tmio-mmc has lots to be improved.
Tasklet is not the only problem.
Sure.

Before investing more effort,
I want working code base for my platform.
Totally acceptable!
