Some users report that the eMMC is not working properly on their
Beelink GS1 boards.

Thanks for the explanation, this is indeed the correct one.
So It looks like the SDIO controller has an issue on some boards when
using HS-DDR mode.

Is this patch acceptable with the proper commit log?

It looks like the same issue is happening on A64 Pinebook board.

Thanks
