AFAICT, your timeout always happens when waiting for RDREQ, not RDYM. So maybe disabling MRDY too early has a side-effect on the RDREQ event.
Can you try with this patch [1]? It should ensure that NDSR_RDY bits are cleared before starting an operation.
No luck. I applied that on top of Daniel's and got the same result.
One thing that does look promising is the following modification of Daniel's patch[1]. Which moves the RDY check to before where the interrupts are enabled.
Except we still don't know why this is happening, and I'm not sure I want to take a fix without understanding why it does fix the problem.
Agreed. My only guess is that there is some interrupt that is missed in the short period they are disabled when calling complete().
Disabling interrupts when taking a spinlock means masking the IRQ line, but the interrupt still exists and should be there when linux unmasks the IRQ line. I don't think this is the problem we're chasing.
Looks more like something
