I will send one shortly.

I will have to explore this option. But yes, this register is handled
entirely in the HW module in the case of Exynos, and in SOCFPGA's case
its in another HW block that is not clock related at all.
Since I've based this code on the exynos implementation, I've CCed a few
of those guys to see if this is possible.

Yes, I will remove.

In the end, there is only 1 DT node for each logical block:
dwmmc0 at ff704000 {
compatible = "altr,socfpga-dw-mshc";
reg = <0xff704000 0x00001000>;
interrupts = <0x00000000 0x0000008b 0x00000004>;
fifo-depth = <0x00000400>;
#address-cells = <0x00000001>;
#size-cells = <0x00000000>;
clocks = <0x00000016 0x00000017>;
clock-names = "biu", "ciu";
num-slots = <0x00000001>;
supports-highspeed;
broken-cd;
altr,dw-mshc-ciu-div = <0x00000003>;
altr,dw-mshc-sdr-timing = <0x00000000 0x00000003>;
slot at 0 {
reg = <0x00000000>;
bus-width = <0x00000004>;
};
};

Will do. Thanks for reviewing this.
