Did you reply to Chuanxiao's review comments yet?  He said:

"So to implement your scenario, how about only add
mmc_blk_issue_sanitize_rq() for REQ_SANITIZE but not touch
mmc_blk_issue_secdiscard_rq()? With your changes in
mmc_blk_issue_secdiscard_rq(), eMMC4.5 device will be failed to operate
secure trim/erase for REQ_SECURE request."
