Some controllers may not be able to reach a bus clock as low as 400 KHz
due to a lack of sufficient divisors. In these cases, the SD card slot
becomes non-functional as Linux continuously attempts to set the bus
clock to 400 KHz. If the controller is incapable of getting that low,
set its minimum frequency instead. While this may eliminate some SD
cards, it allows those capable of operating at the controller's minimum
frequency to be used.

Looks reasonable to me. I assume you intend to send a non-RFC for
this, that I can pick up?

Kind regards

I do intend doing that. How soon depends on whether or not you are
willing to take it on its own, or require it to come in a series with
the spi driver changes.

Thanks,
Conor.

I can pick it separately, if that makes sense to you.
