Just a question to gain further understanding.

Let's assume that the controller is a power-on state, because it's
been initialized by the boot loader. When the mmc core then starts the
power-on sequence (not doing a power-off first), would $subject patch
then cause the
MMCIPOWER to remain as is, or is it going to be overwritten?

I am a little worried that we may start to rely on boot loader
conditions, which isn't really what we want either...

Besides the comment, the code and the approach seems reasonable to me.

Kind regards
