max_discard_sectors value is UINT_MAX which means kernel block layer can pass
down unlimited sectors to MMC driver to erase. But erasing so many sectors may
delay some other important I/O requests. This is not preferred.
So use 'pref_erase' to set a suitable max_discard_sectors value for mmc queue to
avoid erasing too many sectors at one time.
