    The sanitize support is added as a user-app ioctl call, and
    was removed from the block-device request, since its purpose is
    to be invoked not via File-System but by a user.
    
    This feature deletes the unmap memory region of the eMMC card,
    by writing to a specific register in the EXT_CSD.
    
    unmap region is the memory region that was previously deleted
    (by erase, trim or discard operation).
    
    In order to avoid timeout when sanitizing large-scale cards,
    the timeout for sanitize operation is 240 seconds.
