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

Hi Bjorn,

VMMC is the supply that delivers power out to the SD card itself (aka VDD).

It is not the internal power rail/power domain of the host controller
within the SoC.

I've seen this question come up quite a few times.

Should Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mmc/mmc.txt document the vmmc/vqmmc regulators? I assume they're considered shared across all MMC/SDHCI controller bindings?

Since that only covers DT, it might be nice to document vmmc-vs-vqmmc somewhere else too, such as right by the devm_regulator_get_optional() calls in mmc_regulator_get_supply() in drivers/mmc/core/core.c.
