Probably noone who cares about MMC enough prepped a patch for this so
far. Also it probably doesn't matter too much... I mean, if blkid
doesn't find anything it doesn't find anything, so not much bad
happened?

If this matters to you, and it's really clear that there is unlikely
anything blkid-recognizable on it, then by all means, please send a
PR!
