Hi Chris,

As my understanding, the buck/LDO supplies power to MMC slot with 2.8V. We
can call it as regulator A. GPIO pin is used to control this power
supply to MMC
slot. We can call it as regulator B (fixed regulator).

I think that we can linked these two regulators as cascade. Since we
won't change
voltage as regulator A. This link won't bring us any issue. So we only need to
control regulator B in mmc driver. How do you think about this idea?

Haojian
