Forced Programming is not used at present.  FUA results in Reliable Write
requests, at least because Reliable Write pre-dates Forced Programming.
Refer mmc_blk_data_prep().  Note CQE is the same as non-CQE in this regard.

WRT QBR, the block layer does not support the concept of barriers.  However
the code is setting QBR always for DCMD, refer cqhci_prep_dcmd_desc().  That
is just because it feels safer and more predictable for flushes but it might
be more efficient to take it off.

DCMD is not used for erase.  It is only used for flush.  That is because
erase requires 3 commands so it is non-trivial to put it into DCMD.  Also it
is not clear whether there would be a benefit from using DCMD for erase.

Forced Programming applies only to write requests.  Also it is not a
CQE-only feature - refer CMD23.

That issue is the responsibility of the upper layers.  Typically file
systems make use of the page cache where pages are locked during update.
