This looks weird.

Is the bug in the *host controller* or in *the card*?

It looks like the card.

And then it should just be a quirk for this eMMC card in
drivers/mmc/core/quirks.h plus corresponding code in
the core.

Otherwise everyone using this eMMC card has to add this
property in their device tree and that is wrong if we can already
detect it from the card ID and apply it for that card, anywhere.

This is not the first time I see card quirks as DT properties,
it seems like a bit over-reliance on DT.
