I've figured out a way to repeat this on my machine.

If I write 0xff's to the eMMC blocks, then issue an erase for the same,
I get the problem with each MMC_ERASE command.

I've also found something that fixes the issue in my testing.

Changing SECURE_ERASE to 0 from 0x80000000 in include/mmc.h allows
things to function for me.

Page 115 of the JEDEC eMMC 4.5 spec says that bit 31 is obsolete and
should be zero:

Hector and Fabio, can you test that change?

Please advise,


Eric
