So are you saying that the entire purpose of "corecfg_clockmultiplier"
is that causes the "ClockMultiplier" field of the "EMMCCORE_CAP"
register to get a certain value?
...and that the entire purpose of "corecfg_baseclkfreq" is that it
causes the "BaseClockFreqSDClock" field of the "EMMCCORE_CAP" register
to get a certain value?

That would have been nice to know before.  I had assumed that those
"corecfg" settings did something else more useful.

If it is indeed true that these corecfg values are as silly as it
seems, then I guess it's not terribly important to re-set them after
suspend/resume.  Eventually it would be nice/clean to actually do so
(in case the SDHCI driver eventually changes), but I guess we wouldn't
need to block. this patch from landing.

Can you please confirm my understanding above?
