Please ignore my previous answer. MMC_QUIRK_BLK_NO_CMD23 is intended
to indicate to the mmc block layer whether using CMD23 for regular
block IO request could have a performance impact for some cards. If
that's the case we don't use it - except when using reliable write!

So this patch is just plain wrong.
