I think we could make use of a per-controller debugfs thing, if used
in combination with MMC_CAP_AGGRESSIVE_PM and runtime PM.

As runtime PM also has sysfs interface for each device, we can control
runtime PM for the card's device (to trigger re-initialization of the
card). In between runtime suspend/resume of the card's device, we
should be able to change the supported speed modes, through debug fs.

Would this work for you?

Kind regards
