Thanks for dropping it! For the record, my eMMC shows up as:
mmcblk2: mmc2:0001 HAG2e 14.7 GiB

Maybe it could help to share what each tested device reports as eMMC model and
associate that with the current behavior, in spite of getting a clearer idea of
what issue affects what model.

I have started investigating the issue, but did not discover anything
significant yet. I hope I'll be able to figure it out!

Cheers!
