Put "all" in the card node, just doesn't work for MMC. Particular in
cases when we have removable cards, as then it would be wrong to have
a card node.

The mmc pwrseq DT bindings just follows the legacy approach for MMC
and that's why the pwrseq handle is at the controller node. Yes, would
could have done it differently, but this is the case now, so we will
have to accept that.
