Please cc me.

Well, yes. I also suggest:
- don't use host->lock spin lock at all
- claim the host in the caller not in
mmc_start_bkops()
But the main issues are design issues not implementation.
i.e.
- always run bkops at level 3 before doing any
other requests - that requirement should probably
be implemented in core rather than the block driver
- do not release the host while bkops are running
And a new one:
- how do you know that trim/discard/sanitize will not
result in a need for bkops?
