Ah, I mixed things up here. This is a fixed 1.8V supply, which is valid
for eMMC, so the high-speed modes are available. My comment still
applies that this should be fixed by constraining the regulator, not by
removing the DT connection.

vqmmc is the MMC IO voltage, which can be switched either by the
function pin, which gets toggled automatically when software does the
voltage switch, or by explicitly switching the regulator voltage. eMMCs
are a bit special as they can work with a fixed 1.8V IO supply and
don't need to start with 3.3V.

Lucas
