Erasing 4MB.
Before applying this patch set
=> time mmc erase 0x100000 0x2000

MMC erase: dev # 0, block # 1048576, count 8192 ... 8192 blocks erased: OK

time: 44.856 seconds

After applying the patch set:
=> time mmc erase 0x100000 0x2000

MMC erase: dev # 0, block # 1048576, count 8192 ... 8192 blocks erased: OK

time: 0.335 seconds

Will add the test reults in V2 commit log.

Thanks,
Peng.
