That description might not be accurate.

It looks like 4f25580fb84d did not have the intended effect because
CMD13 was already being sent by mmc_select_hs(), still before increasing
the frequency.  53e60650f74e just kept that behaviour.

Is card->ext_csd.hs_max_dtr better than card->ext_csd.hs200_max_dtr here?
