Subject: [ 120/150] mmc: core: expose RPMB partition only for CMD23 capable hosts

3.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Balaji T K <balajitk@...com>

commit d0123ccac55088811bde4f76c4a3fdbd39c3cfba upstream.

SET_BLOCK_COUNT CMD23 is needed for all access to RPMB partition.  If
block count is not set by CMD23, all subsequent read/write commands fail
as per eMMC specification. So, If the host does not support CMD23, do not
expose RPMB partition.

Accessing RPMB partition can cause hang / huge delay for hosts which do
not support CMD23.
