From: Eric Biggers <redacted> In preparation for adding CQHCI crypto engine (inline encryption) support, add the code required to make mmc_core and mmc_block aware of inline encryption. Specifically: - Add a capability flag MMC_CAP2_CRYPTO to struct mmc_host. Drivers will set this if the host and driver support inline encryption. - Embed a blk_keyslot_manager in struct mmc_host. Drivers will initialize this if the host and driver support inline encryption. mmc_block registers this keyslot manager with the request_queue of any MMC card attached to the host. mmc_core destroys this keyslot manager when freeing the mmc_host. - Make mmc_block copy the crypto keyslot and crypto data unit number from struct request to struct mmc_request, so that drivers will have access to them. - If the MMC host is reset, reprogram all the keyslots to ensure that the software state stays in sync with the hardware state.

Overall, I think this looks good. My only hesitation to merge this as is, is that I want to make sure you have thought of the life cycle issues for the struct blk_keyslot_manager ksm. It's being used both from the mmc core/block device driver and the mmc host driver. I am looking at this right now and will get back to you very soon, if I find some issues with it. If you have some time, feel free to elaborate around how this is intended to work. Kind regards Uffe
The blk_keyslot_manager is initialized early on when the other host structures (struct mmc_host, struct cqhci_host, struct sdhci_host, struct sdhci_msm_host) are initialized, prior to mmc_add_host(). It is destroyed when the struct mmc_host is freed by mmc_free_host(). So it should just work; it's the same lifecycle as the existing host structures. Is there something you think I'm overlooking? - Eric
