I couldn't find anything in the SDIO specification (you know the section
number?).  Part A2 has a requirement that the controller be placed into
1-bit mode but this doesn't mean that the card has to be.

Maybe it's not really a big deal, a single command only costs a few 10s
of microseconds anyway.
