Would be nicer if mmc_crypto_set_initial_state() would be exposed
to host drivers, so it could be called instead of:

#ifdef CONFIG_MMC_CRYPTO
	if (host->mmc->caps2 & MMC_CAP2_CRYPTO)
		blk_crypto_reprogram_all_keys(&host->mmc->crypto_profile);
#endif

Perhaps that could be tidied up later.

So, nevertheless:
