Yup, I think ARM PL180 HW IP developers envisioned that the SD-card
regulator and/or level-shifter would utilize these signals electrically
to configure what voltage to use. As far as I read the old TRM the way 
these bits encoded voltage levels were application-specific so I can't
see that there would be any consensus of how to interpret them either.

I never did check whether msm_sdcc used those, but it seemed
unimportant at the time since it's not the same driver (yet).
Nice to know that neither driver uses those though.
