Subject: Continuous SD IO causes hung task messages

Hi,

While dd'ing the contents of a SD card, I get hung task timeout
messages as per below.  However, the dd is making progress.  Any
ideas?

Presumably, mmc_rescan doesn't get a look-in while IO is progressing
for the card?

ARM64 host, Macchiatobin, uSD card.

Thanks.
