Because, if you have an external regulator feeding the mmc with power
you should set it up and use it.

Now, we do have cases where it's actually the MMC controller that
manges the power to the card. So no external regulators being used.
For these case we have the "voltage-ranges" DT binding, but I don't
think you should be using that for these cases. :-)
