The configuration item CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_MINORS:

Help text

Number of minors per block device. One is needed for every partition on the disk (plus one for the whole disk).

Number of total MMC minors available is 256, so your number of supported block devices will be limited to 256 divided by this number.

Default is 8 to be backwards compatible with previous hardwired device numbering.

If unsure, say 8 here.
