Ah, this seems to be a bug of the Nvidia DT, its cd-gpios=<... 0x00>
meaning the GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH, but the CD gpio value is 0 when the card
is inserted. In the kernel v5.10, the sdhci-tegra use below logic as
the card present indicator:

if (!host->mmc->cd_cap_invert)
        host->mmc->rem_card_present = (mmc_gpio_get_cd(host->mmc) == 0);

But the newer version kernel removes the 'rem_card_present', and the
CD gpio still value 0 will be interpreted as the card is not present,
thus the issue happens...
