Actually I think this code is broken in several ways, especially if you do something crazy like access the main partition, both boot partitions and the RPMB partition at the same time. It will invariably screw something up. I am trying to rework this to use the block layer properly, RPMB is just the first step... Yours, Linus Walleij
