I think the best approach will be to set max_context_id to 0 in
mmc_read_ext_csd, if MMC_CAP2_CONTEXT is not enabled. Then, we do not
have to add a check for MMC_CAP2_CONTEXT, wherever we want to use the
context.

I do not think so. This is in line with how mmc_flush_cache is done
today, i.e. we complete the closing/flushing all pending operations on
the device before  __blk_end_request_all.

I will set max_context_id to 0 in mmc_read_ext_csd if MMC_CAP2_CONTEXT
is not set as mentioned above.

In mmc_blk_issue_rq,  we do a "req->context %
card->ext_csd.max_context_id", which will set the context_cfg_id
between 0 and 14. We use this context_cfg_id for the mmc_sync_context.
It should fall within the range.

But in the call from mmc_flush_contexts, I should set the loop i from
0 to (max_context_id-1).

May be, it is good idea to call the parameter context_id as
context_cfg_id within mmc_sync_context to avoid confusion.

Ok. Will do. But this function will still return an error.

Ok. We can set max_context_id to (1 + the context id we could
successfully opened).
