Hi Neeraj,

earlier change for blk_crypto_reprogram_all_keys() in sdhci_msm_gcc_reset() was required
when .hw_reset from sdhci_ops was overwritten with sdhi_msm_gcc_reset internally for robust
error recovery but this changed after https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220408080045.6497-4-wsa+renesas@sang-engineering.com/

we plan to rework recovery soon and we will take care of key reprogramming as part of that.
For time being you can drop this, as Eric pointed out, this is redundant.

Thanks,
Ram
