I think there needs to be a separate sample and drive clock at least,
since they can have different phases, right?  I haven't looked, but if
that's what you have then you're all set!  :)  Above I was suggesting
a 3rd clock instead of arbitrarily using either the sample/drive clock
as the main clock for dw_mmc.
