Thanks for the patch.

Looks OK, although a couple of comments below, plus it needs
a Fixes tag, and Cc for stable.

Fixes: 81196976ed946c ("mmc: block: Add blk-mq support")

Because this is now checked at the top of the loop, wouldn't that
result in one fewer retries than before? So, maybe:

while (retries++ <= MMC_READ_SINGLE_RETRIES) {

We weren't retrying for data errors before, and I don't think we want to
because single block read can be very slow. i.e. just

if (!mrq->cmd->error)
