Actually, no. I saw problems with the SD Card slot, which doesn't have MMC_KEEP_POWER. Problems showed up when no card was inserted across suspend/resume. In other words:
1. At boot time, slot is all setup and configured to 400kHz.
2. Suspend
3. Resume; clock registers are reset (by suspend/resume) and not restored since dw_mmc still thinks slot is configured for 400kHz due to host->current_speed cache.
4. Insert card.
5. No code sees any need to change the clock for detecting the card, since everyone thinks it's at 400kHz. ...but it's not.

Sorry to be confusing. I was trying to explain why the old code works fine in many cases. It's because the core MMC code tends to adjust the clock a lot around suspend/resume. When it does that, it works around this problem. ...but I found one case where suspend/resume would happen and the MMC core didn't adjust the clock.

Effectively, yes. As Jaehoon points out, that means we can actually eliminate the "force" parameter to dw_mci_setup_bus().
I will send a new version out that eliminates the "force" parameter and updates the commit message to (hopefully) be clearer.
