mmc: detect boot sectors using EXT_CSD_BOOT_MULT too

Some eMMC devices contain boot partitions, but do not set the PART_SUPPORT
bit in EXT_CSD_PARTITIONING_SUPPORT. Allow partition selection on such
devices, by enabling partition switching when EXT_CSD_BOOT_MULT is set.

Note that the Linux kernel enables access to boot partitions solely based
on the value of EXT_CSD_BOOT_MULT; EXT_CSD_PARTITIONING_SUPPORT only
influences access to "general" partitions.

eMMC devices affected by this issue exist on various NVIDIA Tegra
platforms (and presumably many others too), such as Harmony (plug-in eMMC),
Seaboard, Springbank, and Whistler (plug-in eMMC).
