MMC devices can have boot partitions, as well as a non-replayable memory block and some general purpose partitions present. As of the moment, these are not accessible from Linux. I'm sending a patch for comments and review to enable the boot partitions.
The MMC partitions are effectively separate devices from the default-accessible user area partition, hence, the extra partitions are exposed as separate block devices.
