Hello Jaehoon,

This is defined in mmc.c right after the include definitions.
The comment says that:
Set block count limit because of 16 bit
register limit on some hardware
So my use of this define is a bit of a hack too.

I think timeout value was from original creator/maintainer
of SD/MMC code.
When trying to read big data off of the SD card, I get the
timeout too on my platform (ml507). My test consist of reading
a 26Mb file from the SD card in PIO and DMA mode.
When the timeout is displayed in the serial console, the block
count register is not yet zero but there is no error in the
interrupt status register. The block count value shows the
same value when I perform the same test.
For my use, CONFIG_SYS_MMC_MAX_BLK_COUNT = 0x1000 in my
environment. I did not modify any of the timeout values.

The infinite loop that you mention does not occur in my
situation.
