Hi guys,

On the NVIDIA shield (tegra114-roth) platform, I have noticed that MMC stopped working completely on recent kernels. MMC devices will not show up and the message "mmc1: Controller never released inhibit bit(s)." shows up repeatedly in the console.

After bisecting I tracked commit 52221610dd84dc3e9196554f0292ca9e8ab3541d ("mmc: sdhci: Improve external VDD regulator support") as the one that introduced this issue, which seems somehow surprising to me since it has been around for a while and nobody else complained about this AFAICT.

The following diff solves the issue for me, however I don't know whether it also reverts the intended purpose of the initial patch:

 }

Does this look like the right approach? If not, would you have any suggestion as to how to solve this problem?

Thanks,
Alex.
