I think SDHCI_QUIRK_FORCE_1_BIT_DATA should override the hardware
capabilities, similar to SDHCI_QUIRK2_NO_1_8_V.  So something like:

diff --git a/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c b/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c
index b1a3cd574c84..605be55f8d2d 100644
--- a/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c
+++ b/drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c
@@ -4539,8 +4539,15 @@ int sdhci_setup_host(struct sdhci_host *host)
 	 * their platform code before calling sdhci_add_host(), and we
 	 * won't assume 8-bit width for hosts without that CAP.
 	 */
-	if (!(host->quirks & SDHCI_QUIRK_FORCE_1_BIT_DATA))
+	if (host->quirks & SDHCI_QUIRK_FORCE_1_BIT_DATA) {
+		host->caps1 &= ~(SDHCI_SUPPORT_SDR104 | SDHCI_SUPPORT_SDR50 | SDHCI_SUPPORT_DDR50);
+		if (host->quirks2 & SDHCI_QUIRK2_CAPS_BIT63_FOR_HS400)
+			host->caps1 &= ~SDHCI_SUPPORT_HS400;
+		mmc->caps2 &= ~(MMC_CAP2_HS200 | MMC_CAP2_HS400 | MMC_CAP2_HS400_ES);
+		mmc->caps &= ~(MMC_CAP_DDR | MMC_CAP_UHS);
+	} else {
 		mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_4_BIT_DATA;
+	}
 
 	if (host->quirks2 & SDHCI_QUIRK2_HOST_NO_CMD23)
 		mmc->caps &= ~MMC_CAP_CMD23;
