[ 120/150] mmc: core: expose RPMB partition only for CMD23 capable hosts

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Feb 26 2013 - 19:45:12 EST


3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Balaji T K <balajitk@xxxxxx>

commit d0123ccac55088811bde4f76c4a3fdbd39c3cfba upstream.

SET_BLOCK_COUNT CMD23 is needed for all access to RPMB partition. If
block count is not set by CMD23, all subsequent read/write commands fail
as per eMMC specification. So, If the host does not support CMD23, do not
expose RPMB partition.

Accessing RPMB partition can cause hang / huge delay for hosts which do
not support CMD23.
