That is fine. But this implies that a software partition is the child of
a block partition and not the other way round. So the tree should like:
MMC
|- BLK (user hardware partition)
||- PARTITION 1 (software partition)
||- PARTITION 2 (software partition)
|...
||- PARTITION n (software partition)
|- BLK (rpmb hardware partition)
|- BLK (boot0 hardware partition)
|- BLK (boot1 hardware partition)

Software partitions are defined and discovered via partition tables.
Hardware partitions are defined in a hardware specific way.
All software partitions map to HD() device tree nodes in UEFI.
An MMC device maps to an eMMC() node
MMC hardware partitions are mapped to Ctrl() nodes by EDK II. We should
do the same in U-Boot.
An SD-card maps to an SD() node.
An NVMe namespace maps to a NVMe() node.
An SCSI LUN maps to a Scsi() node.
SCSI channels of multiple channel controllers are mapped to Ctrl() nodes.
The simple file protocol is only provided by HD() nodes and not by nodes
representing hardware partitions. If the whole hardware partition is
formatted as a file system you would still create a HD() node with
partition number 0.
