Well, I guess it comes down to how hard it is to also re-use this on say
USB (another common case and one I assume you can test on your HW) since
all of EXT4 and FAT and MMC and USB are fairly common and we should be
able to address these with your approach, or at least be within "rework
some other stuff and then.." distance.
