I tested some of the boards that include rk3399-rock-pi-4.dtsi (see
below).

The above diff was just a quick shot at testing the
"rockchip,enable-strobe-pulldown" property when I first learned about
it. I later realized that the property belongs under the &emmc_phy node
as you suggested. That's what I did in the other patchset I sent a bit
later, which was accepted and applied:
https://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-rockchip/2024-March/045723.html
f720dd9b8b6d8b2160beda789429d5489ce8a099
c1b1f340dd7db11f273e426e110697551c9f501f
So yes, the Rock 4SE, Rock Pi 4B and Rock Pi 4B+ boards all were fixed
with the patch. I regularly have the Rock 4SE and Rock 4B running from
EMMC, always with the patch applied since I sent it.
