On the R4S schematic, this is GPIO0_A1 same as the others. GPIO0 doesn't 
even have a bank D on RK3399, it only goes up to B5 :/

...and claiming the card detect is on the same non-existent pin as the 
regulator enable is clearly even more wrong.

Is this another case where a UHS card is involved, such that VCC_SDIO 
gets left at 1.8V after a reboot, so subsequent attempts to do the 
initial handshake where the card is expecting 3V logic levels fail? (AKA 
the Tinkerboard problem). Hobbling the regulator such that Linux can 
never actually turn VCC3V0_SD off, thus the card never gets reset, might 
appear to "work", but isn't the right thing to do.

Robin.
