[PATCH] arm64: dts: rockchip: Enable HS400 enhanced strobe on Kobol Helios64 eMMC

[Igor Velkov via B4 Relay]

From: Igor Velkov <iav@iav.lv>

The eMMC of Helios64 runs in HS200. Run it in HS400 enhanced strobe at
150 MHz, as on Gru. The strobe line goes straight from the SoC to the
DS pin of the eMMC with no pull-down on the board, so enable the one
in the eMMC PHY.

Schematic, sheet 14:
https://wiki.kobol.io/helios64/files/schematics/Helios64_Schematics_Rev1.2.pdf

Tested on mainline with three 2 GiB write and read-back passes, no
errors. Raw reads go from 180 MB/s in HS200 to 247 MB/s. Without the
pull-down, writes dropped to about 1 MB/s with repeated
"mmc1: running CQE recovery".
