mmc: core: Add support for cache ctrl for SD cards



In SD spec v6.x the SD function extension registers for performance
enhancements were introduced. As a part of this an optional internal cache
on the SD card, can be used to improve performance.

The let the SD card use the cache, the host needs to enable it and manage
flushing of the cache, so let's add support for this.

Note that for an SD card supporting the cache it's mandatory for it, to
also support the poweroff notification feature. According to the SD spec,
if the cache has been enabled and a poweroff notification is sent to the
card, that implicitly also means that the card should flush its internal
cache. Therefore, dealing with cache flushing for REQ_OP_FLUSH block
requests is sufficient.
