Always powered on :)

Yea the SoM connector supplies only 1 USB and that goes to multiplexer
that should be switched via a small 4 switch thingy on the board.
And then one of those 2 outputs goes to USB hub.

Well my bad. Was slightly in hurry when checking the very very crude
datasheet kingston provides for it. Must have overlooked the mention of
DDR3L.

I do :)
yes it also supplies PLL.

Correct. VCC-IO is one of the rails supplied from this parent rail.

Its fine. I will just enable it in carrier boards and BTT Pi DTS :)
