You could strace the mount and see if it's checking /sys/block/sdb/queue/rotational This is commonly done to see if the device supports trim/discard first. If it's a 1 then it may be a udev thing. Likewise you can strace mkfs.ext4 which I think defaults to -E discard if the value for ../rotational is 0. I know this is the case for mkfs.btrfs. See thread "zeroing out part of an SDcard" for some things I found relating to SD Cards.
