Subject: [PATCH] mmc: card: Don't show eMMC RPMB and BOOT areas in /proc/partitions
Date:   Tue, 27 Feb 2018 17:03:49 +0530

From: Andrew Gabbasov <andrew_gabbasov@mentor.com>

Since RPMB area is accessible via special ioctl only and boot areas
are unlikely to contain any partitions, exclude them all from listing
in /proc/partitions. This will hide them from various user-level
software (e.g. fdisk), thus avoiding unnecessary access attempts.
