Subject: [PATCH 1/3] sdhci: Implement CAP_CLOCK_BASE_BROKEN quirk

Some hosts (e.g. as found in CNS3xxx SOCs) report wrong value in
CLOCK_BASE capability field, and currently there is no way to
force the SDHCI core to use the platform-provided base clock value.

This patch implements CAP_CLOCK_BASE_BROKEN quirk. When enabled,
the SDHCI core will always use base clock frequency provided by
the platform.

I don't think this needs a new quirk. Change the sdhci driver to check
if the platform provides a value before reading the standard register.

Well, Pierre once said that by default we should conform to the
SDHCI spec, and any diviations from the spec should be handled by
the quirks:

http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2009-02/msg03385.html

Spec clearly states that base clock == 0 is the case when we should
fall back to the platform-provided clocks.

So, for controllers that conform to the spec, following might be
true:

- Platform provides its own (alternate) clock, but
- SDHCI block choose not to use it, and doesn't clear bits in the
capability register
- Then the driver should not use the platform provided clock.

Thanks,
