AM4378: Multiple eMMC support

Part Number: AM4378

Would it be possible to build a board that had multiple MMC cards operating on the same bus, i.e. have 2 eMMC cards connected to MMC2 lines both in 8-bit mode?

Based on the following link it would seems possible from a protocol standpoint

However, the AM437x Technical Reference Manual seems to show in the 17.3 Functional Description that

One MMC/SD/SDIO host controller can support one MMC memory card, one SD card, or one SDIO card.
Other combinations (for example, two SD cards, one MMC card, and one SD card) are not supported
through a single controller.

Is it that the omap_hsmmc driver does not allow it or is there something in the processor core that would make this more difficult (but not impossible)?
