Here is a reminder of what I found at the time (so you don't to dig in your
mailbox for it)

Regressions reported by Kci on the following platforms:
* qcom-apq8064-cm-qs600
* qcom-apq8064-ifc6410

it seems the problem is coming from the clock used by the mmc driver
(drivers/mmc/host/mmci.c)

the driver does following sequence:
* get_clk
* prepare_enable
* get_rate
* set_rate
* ...

with clock SDCx_clk (qcom_apq8064.dtsi:1037). This clock has CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT
flag so it will transmit the request to its parent.
The parent of this clock is SDCx_src which has the CLK_SET_RATE_GATE flag.
