GRF_IO_VSEL is the voltage-domain selection for different domains,
see the &io_domains{} node in your rockpro64 dts.
The soc needs to know with what voltage some of its inputs are
supplied.

Bits are:
0 - bt656
1 - audio
2 - sdmmc
3 - gpio1833

These bits must correspond of the voltages of their regulators,
0 for 3.3V and 1 for 1.8V.

But the vcc1v8_dvp regulator connected to the bt656 input has
not changed since the initial submission of the devicetree.
