The eMMC signalling voltage is determined by VCCQ which is provided to
the card by the host. Signalling is not required to begin at 3.3v and,
if the host and card both support a particular VCC/VCCQ combination, it
can be used immediately.
In contrast, SD Cards must begin with 3.3v signalling and may switch to
a lower voltage signalling if instructed to do so in CMD11. A message
is required to coordinate this operation because the card only receives
a 3.3v VDD and must know when to use the 1.8v produced by its internal
regulator.
It makes sense for the core to begin with 3.3v signalling but when that
can't be set, 1.8v and 1.2v signalling also should be attempted. This
is especially important when an external regulator with a limited range
is used to supply VCCQ to an eMMC part.
