Hmm, I don't think MMC_CAP2_BOOTPART_NOACC should have a DT binding.
Does it describe the hardware in some form?

Actually I would like to question why MMC_CAP2_BOOTPART_NOACC exists
at all. If there are cards that don't supports the BOOT area,
shouldn't we have a card quirk for it instead of a host cap? Maybe
Adrian Hunter, how originally wrote the patch for adding
MMC_CAP2_BOOTPART_NOACC, could help me understand the reasons behind
it!?

Kind regards
Uffe
