Hi Andrew,
While RPMB partition requires special IOCTL, the boot partition is only requires "switch partition", which is not unusual operation in eMMC.
Why to prevent users access boot partition?
Thanks,
Alex

Since RPMB area is accessible via special ioctl only and boot areas
are unlikely to contain any partitions, exclude them all from listing
in /proc/partitions. This will hide them from various user-level
software (e.g. fdisk), thus avoiding unnecessary access attempts.
