That is a bit different as the host controller is operating in
completely different modes. In your case, the host controller is the
same and functions the same way, but just has different cards
attached.

Why do you need to know? You can define parameters which can't be
probed such as bus width, voltage, and clock freq. in DT for each
host. The MMC subsys core will figure out the type of device attached.
