Do you mean to list the "sd-uhs-sdr50" and friends properties here in
the DT?
What is the best practice here in terms putting them in the .dts vs.
the .dtsi? Surely the controller has limits, but bad traces on a board
could impose further restrictions, right? 
Though that's probably rare, so it sounds like a lot of churn to list
them in every board DT. So can we list everything in here (.dtsi), then
delete in those affected boards only?
