-     * The new emulator's "ranchu" virtual board no longer includes a goldfish
-     * MMC-based SD card device; instead, it emulates SD cards with virtio-blk,
-     * which has been supported by upstream kernel and QEMU for quite a while.
-     * Unfortunately, the virtio-blk block device driver does not use a fixed
-     * major number, but relies on the kernel to assign one from a specific
-     * range of block majors, which are allocated for "LOCAL/EXPERIMENAL USE"
-     * per Documentation/devices.txt. This is true even for the latest Linux
-     * kernel (4.4; see init() in drivers/block/virtio_blk.c).
-     *
-     * This makes it difficult for vold to detect a virtio-blk based SD card.
-     * The current solution checks two conditions (both must be met):
-     *
-     *  a) If the running environment is the emulator;
-     *  b) If the major number is an experimental block device major number (for
-     *     x86/x86_64 3.10 ranchu kernels, virtio-blk always gets major number
-     *     253, but it is safer to match the range than just one value).
-     *
-     * Other conditions could be used, too, e.g. the hardware name should be
-     * "ranchu", the device's sysfs path should end with "/block/vd[d-z]", etc.
-     * But just having a) and b) is enough for now.
