"adjust the ... properties", really sounds like hacking around some issue.

First of all, this would be two patches.  If the io-domains do not follow
the schematics, fixing this is one patch, but for such a big change
I do expect actual references to the devices' schematics for that.

This is even more important, as you're switching some supplies
between sources of different voltages

and here it looks like you're more or less randomly adding and removing
properties until it worked "for you".

Especially removing the supply-regulators does not really make sense.
If you see instabilities, the main contenders would be max-frequency and
sd-uhs-sdr50 as culprits.

Similarly, supports-sdio is not even a valid property, so neither the
devicetree spec does allow it, nor does the kernel handle it at all.
