Yes, this makes sense to me now. However, it's too late for me to pick
this a fix for 5.0, but I have queued it for 5.1 and added the
following tags:

Fixes: b305882fbc87 (mmc: core: optimize mmc_calc_max_discard)
Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v4.17+

If you want to patch older kernels and manual backport needs to be
submitted to stable.

Thanks and kind regards
