Bug

Target
K64F and UBLOX EVK-ODIN-W2

Toolchain:
GCC_ARM

Toolchain version:
$ arm-none-eabi-gcc --version
arm-none-eabi-gcc (GNU Tools for ARM Embedded Processors 6-2017-q2-update) 6.3.1 20170620 (release) [ARM/embedded-6-branch revision 249437]

mbed-cli version:
$ mbed --version

Expected behavior
sd.init() succeeds

Actual behavior
sd.init() returns failure code -5005

Steps to reproduce
Follow instructions at https://github.com/ARMmbed/sd-driver/blob/9edd43dba50b861d0928ceda9a60bbd0e1f96d36/README.md#sdblockdevice-example-application

Compile the application for either K64F or UBLOX EVK-ODIN-W2, the issue reproduces on both platforms.

** Additional notes **

1. This was tried with two SD cards, both failed:

• SanDisk Edge 4GB Micro SDHC
• SanDisk 8GB Micro SDHC

2. This issue does not occur on older mbed-os-5.4.7 with older sd-driver
   This combination works:
   mbed-os: fc18365 (HEAD, tag: mbed_lib_rev144, tag: mbed-os-5.4.7, origin/mbed-os-5.4) Merge pull request Release candidate for mbed-os-5.4.7 #4463 from ARMmbed/release-candidate
   sd-driver: $ git log -n1 --oneline
   efc6bbc (HEAD) Add pin override for NUCLEO_F429ZI (CAN-Related Pull Request #20)

3. Re-format the SD card and power-cycle the device when switching library versions to increase chances of success. Even with the working driver combination, the init would sometimes fail the first few times until a power cycle.

4. Marked as a blocker since any FOTA with mbed-os-5.5.4/mbed-cloud-client-1.2.2-EA will fail when configured to use SD card for file storage.

Initialization and some other issues with SD cards were resolved in PelionIoT/sd-driver#61. Please try the SD-driver master 1cb007fb3

Deselecting card between read/write ops caused issues
