I know that this is copied off mci_get_partition_setting_completed(),
but why does it need to call mci_get_ext_csd()? Can't we just access
prepopulated mci->ext_csd?

Wouldn't it be confusing for the write reliability setting to remain constant?

For example a script may want to check that the value is not set before running,
but if it's set at runtime, we want the script to notice that on the second run
without having to reset.

I know this would apply to partitioning_completed too.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Ahmad
