Is there any value in implementing this in a generic way? That is, will a SoC
other than BCM2711 ever need this? Otherwise I can simply limit BCM2711's
sdhci-iproc min clk frequency to 300KHz and call it a day.

The alternative is something the likes of:

	min_clk = clk_get_rate(core_bus) >> 11;

But it involves updating the bindings and DT.

Regards,
Nicolas
