if (host->quirks2 & SDHCI_QUIRK2_NO_1_8_V) {
host->caps1 &= ~(SDHCI_SUPPORT_SDR104 | SDHCI_SUPPORT_SDR50 |
SDHCI_SUPPORT_DDR50);
/*
* The SDHCI controller in a SoC might support HS200/HS400

*/
mmc->caps2 &= ~(MMC_CAP2_HSX00_1_8V | MMC_CAP2_HS400_ES);
mmc->caps &= ~(MMC_CAP_1_8V_DDR | MMC_CAP_UHS);
}

I think it is restricted due to cleared MMC_CAP_1_8V_DDR.

You can just use any board with a eMMC and add a fixed regulator and
claim that vqmmc is at 1.8V, the stack won't notice :-)

reg_1p8v: regulator-1p8v {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
regulator-name = "1P8V";
regulator-min-microvolt = <1800000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <1800000>;
regulator-always-on;
};

&usdhc3 {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_usdhc3>;
...
vqmmc-supply = <&reg_1p8v>;
...
};
