Later in this thread I mentioned that initialization at 300 Khz is
too fast for some platforms/cards (avr32 AP7000/main-stream cards).
They will report CRC-errors so the above won't work.

I have looked at the time it will take to exchange the initial data (about
85 bytes), using different busses and frequencies:
	
        Intface:  8-bits  4-bits  SPI
Bus-freq:
400000 (Hz)       0.213   0.425    1.700 (ms)
300000            0.283   0.567    2.267
200000            0.425   0.850    3.400
100000            0.850   1.700    6.800
50000             1.700   3.400   13.600
100               850     1700    6800

These are netto times, without the msleep's for power-up and without
overhead.

Looking at this table, I would use a fixed bottom of 100 Khz:

	if (f_min > 400k)
		print existing warning
	clock = max (100k, host->f_min);
