OK, so I guess this will be fixed independently via mmc subsystem.

OK. It seems there is a driver for that in arch/arm/mach-exynos.
Otherwise I would have suggest to create something like
syscon-reboot for shutdown.

I suggest to start a new thread for discussing this, which includes
linux-mmc. It might be interesting to provide some more details about
eMMC_nDET, since MMC already contain a reset signal (which seems to
be used according to the odroid schematics I found).
