[RFC] mmc: Change the max discard sectors and erase response if mmc host supports busy signalling

From: Baolin Wang
Date: Wed Apr 20 2016 - 03:12:10 EST


When mmc host HW supports busy signalling (using R1B as response), We
shouldn't use 'host->max_busy_timeout' as the limitation when deciding
the max discard sectors that we tell the generic BLOCK layer about.
Instead, we should pick one preferred erase size as the max discard sectors.

If the host controller supports busy signalling and the timeout for
the erase operation exceeds the max_busy_timeout, we should use R1B
response. Or we need to prevent the host from doing hw busy
detection, which is done by converting to a R1 response instead.
