Hi Avri
The code expands as follows:
static struct mmc_blk_data *mmc_blk_alloc_req(struct mmc_card *card,
struct device *parent,
sector_t size,
bool default_ro,
const char *subname,
int area_type,
unsigned int part_type)
{
...
if (md->flags & MMC_BLK_CMD23 &&
((card->ext_csd.rel_param & EXT_CSD_WR_REL_PARAM_EN) ||
card->ext_csd.rel_sectors)) {
md->flags |= MMC_BLK_REL_WR;
if (!card->host->fua_disable) <<<Allow chip manufacturers whether to use FUA.
fua_enabled = true;
cache_enabled = true;
}
if (mmc_cache_enabled(card->host))
cache_enabled = true;

blk_queue_write_cache(md->queue.queue, cache_enabled, fua_enabled); <<<
...
}

void blk_queue_write_cache(struct request_queue *q, bool wc, bool fua)
{
if (wc)
blk_queue_flag_set(QUEUE_FLAG_WC, q);
else
blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_WC, q);
if (fua)
blk_queue_flag_set(QUEUE_FLAG_FUA, q); <<<
else
blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_FUA, q);

wbt_set_write_cache(q, test_bit(QUEUE_FLAG_WC, &q->queue_flags));
}

Also, echo 0 > fua is forbidden regardless of permissions.
Do you have any better suggestions?
