As far as I could tell:

For mainline, arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/meson-g12a-sei510.dts

	bus-width = <4>;
	cap-sd-highspeed;
	sd-uhs-sdr50;
	max-frequency = <100000000>;

For vendor, common/arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/mesong12a_sei.dtsi

		bus-width = <4>;
		cap-sd-highspeed;
		cap-mmc-highspeed;
		max-frequency = <100000000>;

vendor DTS has the following child node:

		sdio {
			pinname = "sdio";
			ocr_avail = <0x200080>; /**VDD voltage 3.3 ~ 3.4 */
			/* max_req_size = <0x20000>; */ /**128KB*/
			max_req_size = <0x400>;
			card_type = <3>;
			/* 3:sdio device(ie:sdio-wifi),
			 * 4:SD combo (IO+mem) card
			 */
			dmode = "pio";
		};

Maybe the vendor kernel uses the above information to "boost"
the performance of the SDIO-based WiFi adapter?
