I did *some* of this for v3, but since figured out how to use `pahole` :)

Right, pahole.

You may want to reorder the members to avoid implicit gaps
(i.e. structs first, followed by integral types in decreasing size).

So, for v4, I'll have it looking like this, which `pahole` says is
optimally packed:

struct litex_mmc_host {
        struct mmc_host *          mmc;                  /*     0     8 */
        struct platform_device *   dev;                  /*     8     8 */
        void *                     sdphy;                /*    16     8 */
        void *                     sdcore;               /*    24     8 */
        void *                     sdreader;             /*    32     8 */
        void *                     sdwriter;             /*    40     8 */
        void *                     sdirq;                /*    48     8 */
        void *                     buffer;               /*    56     8 */
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        size_t                     buf_size;             /*    64     8 */

size_t is 32-bit on RV32, so you may want to move it below cmd_done.

        /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) was 12 bytes ago --- */

        bool                       app_cmd;              /*   143     1 */

        /* size: 144, cachelines: 3, members: 18 */
        /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};

After a bit of a fight, I managed to wrestle `pahole` to display useful
information for 32-bit (rv32imac) builds:

struct litex_mmc_host {
        struct mmc_host *          mmc;                  /*     0     4 */
        struct platform_device *   dev;                  /*     4     4 */
        void *                     sdphy;                /*     8     4 */
        void *                     sdcore;               /*    12     4 */
        void *                     sdreader;             /*    16     4 */
        void *                     sdwriter;             /*    20     4 */
        void *                     sdirq;                /*    24     4 */
        void *                     buffer;               /*    28     4 */
        size_t                     buf_size;             /*    32     4 */
        dma_addr_t                 dma;                  /*    36     4 */
        struct completion          cmd_done;             /*    40    16 */
        int                        irq;                  /*    56     4 */
        unsigned int               ref_clk;              /*    60     4 */
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        unsigned int               sd_clk;               /*    64     4 */
        u32                        resp[4];              /*    68    16 */
        u16                        rca;                  /*    84     2 */
        bool                       is_bus_width_set;     /*    86     1 */
        bool                       app_cmd;              /*    87     1 */

        /* size: 88, cachelines: 2, members: 18 */
        /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
};

Looks like even with `size_t buf_size` where it is right now, there
still are no holes. I like it where it is, as it's related to the

Right, dma_addr_t is 32-bit, too. I'm just too used to LPAE on ARM ;-)

field immediately preceding it (`buffer`). I'd rather not move it,
particularly since we're not actually eliminating any additional
holes.

Thanks, LGTM.

What do you think (i.e., is there a configuration where there's still
a chance we may run into trouble)?

ICONFIG_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT=y/CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT=y
on 32-bit, but that doesn't seem to be supported under arch/risc/ yet.
