I think the issue may also exist for emergency reboot based on the Asus Tinker Board kernel commit at [1],
not sure how this could be solved in an acceptable way. Personally I do not have sysrq enabled on my boards.

I may have exaggerated the issue in the above line, the board will reboot as long as
UHS 1.8V signaling is not used, current upstream device trees is missing the sd-uhs-* flags
and will thus reboot as they are capped at sd high speed and 3.3V signaling.

Thanks for the suggestion, the reason I put the mmc_set_initial_signal_voltage() call
before mmc_pwrseq_power_off() call was to do it in reverse order of mmc_power_on(),

I will run some more tests on my boards to see if moving it below mmc_set_initial_state()
also makes it possible to reboot with UHS cards using 1.8V signaling enabled.
