Removal/insertion of an SD card should be fine, as that doesn't mean
that the host is removed. In other words, host->index remains the
same.
Although, for a bad DT configuration, where for example the same
aliases id is used twice, a fallback could make sense. On the other
hand, as such configuration would be wrong, we might as well just
print a message and return an error.
