I don't understand the power tree of this board: if your VQMMC is VIO18 and
*not* VMC, why is that required?

The real question is if we're facing one more supply as requirement for newer
MediaTek SoCs and whether it would be a better idea to add that to the actual
driver (and/or as a power domain supply!!!) to both better represent the power
tree and to eventually allow deep power saving states.

Regards,
Angelo
