After some hunting it seems like the recent Qualcomm platforms are
suffering from this as well.

Should one interpret your answer as that iff the SDHCI controller
actually follows the specification (and provides the power control)

used for specifying the supply of power to the controller?

Or simply; what is vmmc (in the code) supposed to represent?
