Those ids looks strange. You are from Silabs, can you check internally
in Silabs if ids are really correct? And which sdio vendor id you in
Silabs got assigned for your products?

I know that sdio devices with multiple functions may have different sdio
vendor/device id particular function and in common CIS (function 0).

Could not be a problem that on one place is vendor/device id correct and
on other place is that strange value?

I have sent following patch (now part of upstream kernel) which exports
these ids to userspace:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mmc/20200527110858.17504-2-pali@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u

Also for debugging ids and information about sdio cards, I sent another
patch which export additional data:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mmc/20200727133837.19086-1-pali@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u

Could you try them and look at /sys/class/mmc_host/ attribute outputs?

Normally all sdio devices are hotplugged in linux kernel based on sdio
device and vendor ids. And these ids are unique identifiers of sdio
devices. So should be enough for detection.

Months ago I have checked it and moved all SDIO device and vendor ids
into common include/linux/mmc/sdio_ids.h file. I would like to not have
this "mess" again, which was basically fully cleaned.

I'm adding linux-mmc mailing list and Ulf Hansson to loop.

Ulf, can you look at this "problem"? What do you think about those
"strange" sdio ids?
