The IO rails connected to PMIC rail and connection does not get change.
We change the voltage of PMIC rails via regulator calls. And then
configure pads for the new voltage.
We really do not witch the supply connection here. power-source is about
the power supply connection, not about the voltage change on same supply.

Like in MMC driver for SDIO3.0:

regulator_set_voltage(sdmmc_rail, 3300000, 3300000);
tegra_io_pad_voltage_configure(SDMMC, 3300000)


For 1.8V

regulator_set_voltage(sdmmc_rail, 1800000, 1800000);
tegra_io_pad_voltage_configure(SDMMC, 1800000)
