Commit messages are better if they say why a change
is being made.

This begs the question, was there a problem with 400 kHz?
Are there cases that benefit from this change?
Should it have a fixes tag,cc stable?

Code show as below:
static struct sdhci_ops sdhci_sprd_ops = {
...
.get_min_clock = sdhci_sprd_get_min_clock,
...
};

int sdhci_setup_host(struct sdhci_host *host)
{
...
if (host->ops->get_min_clock)
mmc->f_min = host->ops->get_min_clock(host);
...
}

static const unsigned freqs[] = { 400000, 300000, 200000, 100000 };
void mmc_rescan(struct work_struct *work)
{
...
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(freqs); i++) {
unsigned int freq = freqs[i];
if (freq > host->f_max) {
if (i + 1 < ARRAY_SIZE(freqs))
continue;
freq = host->f_max;
}
if (!mmc_rescan_try_freq(host, max(freq, host->f_min)))
break;
if (freqs[i] <= host->f_min) // If you start at 100K, you will try
400K, 300K, 200K, 100K.
break;
}
...
}

Our controller supports 100K. During the test, it was found that mmc_rescan
failed to scan the card at 400K, and did not try 300K, 200K, and 100K. After
modifying the minimum clock limit to 100K, the card scan was successful.

Please add those last 3 lines to the commit message, then you can add:

Acked-by: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]>

Also please consider adding a Fixes: tag.
