Hi. I agree it's likely that this is correct if the kernel fix is 
correct. The impact of slowing eMMC transfers in the bootloader is less 
important than slowing every runtime access in the kernel too. If 
there's any place to be conservative, it's here.

Did GL.iNet ever reply about what specific problem this fix is supposed 
to correct? As far as I can guess from their vague waffle, it's a 
workaround for eMMC issues on a small number of early boards, but they 
haven't actually said that.

Best wishes,

Chris.
