That is already handled by patches:

commit 614f0388f580c436d2cf6dc0855de91d13ddc23d
"mmc: block: move single ioctl() commands to block requests"
commit 3ecd8cf23f88d5df1c545a5c04217987abb28575
"mmc: block: move multi-ioctl() to use block layer"

Since all ioctl()s are not sent in through the block queue
they get serialized by the very nature of how block requests
work, i.e. one at a time. I have even tried to send RPMB
commands from two consoles while a huge dd work was already
working in the background. No problems with that.

Yours,
