Failed to set clk rate for BCM2835_CLOCK_EMMC

Hi,
i'm still playing with sdhci-iproc and i found out that the emmc clock (249799997 Hz) of the host isn't optimal for high speed.
Here an example debugfs output for a Compute Module:
clock: 52000000 Hz
actual clock: 41633332 Hz
vdd: 21 (3.3 ~ 3.4 V)
bus mode: 2 (push-pull)
chip select: 0 (don't care)
power mode: 2 (on)
bus width: 2 (4 bits)
timing spec: 1 (mmc high-speed)
signal voltage: 0 (3.30 V)
driver type: 0 (driver type B)
The actual clock results from the restriction that the clock divider of the emmc module must be multiple of 2 (249799997 / 6 = 41633332). So if we could adjust the emmc clock to something like 208 MHz we get an nearly optimal clock.
So tried set the clock rate of BCM2835_CLOCK_EMMC via clk_set_rate() to 208 MHz during driver probe, but it fails:
[ 1.478953] sdhci-iproc 20300000.sdhci: failed to set host clk: -16
This seems to be EBUSY.
Any explanation or solution for this?
