Hi Angelo,

These two property(boost and va09) is not software switch, they
are hardware switch. Because if platform support crypto boost, we set
boost property in device tree. And if platform support ufs va09, we set
va09 proberty in device tree. These property are main hardware switch.

We don't use sub switch like voltage or clock setting becasue it is
not intiutive. Especially when va09 is not used by ufs (No va09
property but have va09 voltage), The behavior should be wrong if ufs
control va09 which used by other module.

Thanks.
Peter
