In case of packed command, brq->data.blocks contains the sum of blocks for individual request.
That means blk_rq_bytes(req) doesn't represent all packed length bytes.
And "brq->data.blocks << 9" is not idential to blk_rq_bytes(req) in non-packed command.
"brq->data.blocks" is overwritten during request preparation by the following reasons.
- brq->data.blocks > card->host->max_blk_count
- disable_multi
- do_rel_wr
So "brq->data.blocks << 9" is not good choice for request length  in non-packed command.
