Hi Chris,

On platforms prior to Exynos the SDHCI block used internal clock
divider controlled by SELFREQ field of CLKCON register to divide base
clock selected from several external clocks fed to the block by
SELBASECLK bitfield of CONTROL2 register. Depending on wanted clock
frequency, different external clock may be the best choice and so
the driver needs to switch the SELBASECLK mux on the fly.
However the selection logic has been broken for quite some time leaving
the controller using always clock 0, which is not always the right
source and leading to suboptimal performance of the SDHCI block on
affected platforms.
This series intends to fix the problems mentioned above and also clean-up
clock management code slightly.
Tested on S3C6410-based Mini6410 board, with following performance
figures:
* Before this series (133 MHz HCLK always selected, leading to at most
33 MHz card clock):
root@tiny6410:~# hdparm -t /dev/mmcblk0
/dev/mmcblk0:
Timing buffered disk reads: 42 MB in 3.10 seconds = 13.54 MB/sec
root@tiny6410:~# hdparm -t /dev/mmcblk0
/dev/mmcblk0:
Timing buffered disk reads: 44 MB in 3.11 seconds = 14.14 MB/sec
root@tiny6410:~#
* After this series (48 MHz EPLL clock selected, leading to 48 MHz card
clock):
root@tiny6410:~# hdparm -t /dev/mmcblk0
/dev/mmcblk0:
Timing buffered disk reads: 56 MB in 3.04 seconds = 18.41 MB/sec
root@tiny6410:~# hdparm -t /dev/mmcblk0
/dev/mmcblk0:
Timing buffered disk reads: 60 MB in 3.06 seconds = 19.63 MB/sec

What do you think about this series?
Could you take this series for 3.15?
Best regards,
Tomasz
