     45Note on Erase Size and Preferred Erase Size:
     46
     47	"erase_size" is the  minimum size, in bytes, of an erase
     48	operation.  For MMC, "erase_size" is the erase group size
     49	reported by the card.  Note that "erase_size" does not apply
     50	to trim or secure trim operations where the minimum size is
     51	always one 512 byte sector.  For SD, "erase_size" is 512
     52	if the card is block-addressed, 0 otherwise.
     53
     54	SD/MMC cards can erase an arbitrarily large area up to and
     55	including the whole card.  When erasing a large area it may
     56	be desirable to do it in smaller chunks for three reasons:
     57
     58	     1. A single erase command will make all other I/O on
     59		the card wait.  This is not a problem if the whole card
     60		is being erased, but erasing one partition will make
     61		I/O for another partition on the same card wait for the
     62		duration of the erase - which could be a several
     63		minutes.
     64	     2. To be able to inform the user of erase progress.
     65	     3. The erase timeout becomes too large to be very
     66		useful.  Because the erase timeout contains a margin
     67		which is multiplied by the size of the erase area,
     68		the value can end up being several minutes for large
     69		areas.
     70
     71	"erase_size" is not the most efficient unit to erase
     72	(especially for SD where it is just one sector),
     73	hence "preferred_erase_size" provides a good chunk
     74	size for erasing large areas.
     75
     76	For MMC, "preferred_erase_size" is the high-capacity
     77	erase size if a card specifies one, otherwise it is
     78	based on the capacity of the card.
     79
     80	For SD, "preferred_erase_size" is the allocation unit
     81	size specified by the card.
     82
     83	"preferred_erase_size" is in bytes.
     84
     85Note on raw_rpmb_size_mult:
     86
     87	"raw_rpmb_size_mult" is a multiple of 128kB block.
     88
     89	RPMB size in byte is calculated by using the following equation:
     90
     91		RPMB partition size = 128kB x raw_rpmb_size_mult
