I understood what you said. Your code is displaying "secure erase not supported..".
So it will be displayed spamming when card doesn't support secure erase.
In this case, your mention is right.

Well, if you're ok, it can be changed from printf to debug. 
And I think that it can be located to mmc->sec_feature_support is assigned.

If it needs to know whether card is sec_feature_support or not, i think that it can be implemented into mmcinfo.
I don't think what's correct or wrong. :) It's just my preference.
