Hi Adrian,
My patch intend to fix the cache problem brought by the following two
patches:

Fixes: d0c97cfb81ebc ("mmc: core: Use CMD23 for multiblock transfers
when we can.")
Fixes: e9d5c746246c8 ("mmc/block: switch to using blk_queue_write_cache()")

I'm not sure if this is what you referred to ("Fixes tag"). Please
correct me if I misunderstood.

I saw another mail by Avri Altman, which says few days will be needed to
ask internally. Shall I wait or make another change here on 'inform
block layer about SD card cache'?
