[PATCH 2/3] arm64: dts: ten64: reduce maximum SD card speed

There have been user reports of timeouts when using certain SD cards.

To improve stability, reduce the maximum SD card frequency to 25MHz.
Reducing the maximum frequency will disable most high speed modes like
UHS-1.

If this issue is resolved in the future (by PCB change or software tuning),
we will apply fixups in the bootloader to set the correct parameters.
