Ok. shall remove the print message in success case.

Maybe - what do these parameters mean?

The functions "mmc_boot_open()" and "mmc_boot_close()" have lot of
commom code. So Jaehoon suggested to
combine them into single generic function as below
1) So a single generic function "mmc_boot_part_access(struct mmc *mmc, int
ack, int part_num, int access)" to be used
instead of two functions open() and close().
2) By doing so user can specify which boot partition to be accessed (opened
/ closed).

The parameters *ack, part_num, access,* represent the values of bits in the
PARTITION_CONFIG field
of the Extended CSD register in order to address one of the partitions.
PARTITION_CONFIG - [179]:
-------------------------------------------
Bit 6: BOOT_ACK (R/W/E)
0x0 : No boot acknowledge sent (default)
0x1 : Boot acknowledge sent during boot operation
Bit[5:3] : BOOT_PARTITION_ENABLE (R/W/E)
User selects boot data that will be sent to master
0x0 : Device not boot enabled (default)
0x1 : Boot partition 1 enabled for boot
0x2 : Boot partition 2 enabled for boot
Bit[2:0] : PARTITION_ACCESS (before BOOT_PARTITION_ACCESS, R/W/E_P)
User selects partitions to access
0x0 : No access to boot partition (default)
0x1 : R/W boot partition 1
0x2 : R/W boot partition 2
0x3 : R/W Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB)

Please comment on the above.
