I would only expect to see multiple states defined in a single board
.dts file /if/ runtime muxing is required. Given MMC doesn't runtime
mux, I wouldn't expect there to be multiple states for different bus
widths; it's just that the "default" state would point at whatever
single configuration is appropriate for the board.
