This may end up using R1B for rpmb commands, we don't want that.

If we end up using R1B and the host supports HW busy detection, we
should skip polling.

I believe I understand the problem you are trying to address in the
$subject patch. Let me try to help out, by sending a re-worked patch
to try to cover the things I pointed out above in a more consistent
