How would that be possible? One cannot have the same pins used for SPI 
flash and eMMC at the same time? So that would be an issue in the DT or 
a misconfigured DT for the board?

On paper otherwise, it makes sense to me not to probe the device until 
it's used.

Is it guaranteed the devices are actually probed before being used from 
the SPL loader code? (common/spl/*) I guess if it's not it would be an 
issue in the SPL loader code making assumptions it shouldn't.

Cheers,
Quentin
