Why are you doing this in the SDHC code and not in the block driver code?
AFAICT, whether CMD23 can be used or not is primarily a decision based on
the card, and the block driver might want issue it for a longer range
if it needs to split a block request into multiple MMC requests.
You you add another flag to the host capabilities instead that tells
the lower driver if CMD23 is supported, and then issue it from there?
