[U-Boot] [PATCH 6/7] mx35: Fix eSDHC clocks

OK, then this patch does the job for the single eSDHC instance use case, which
will still use gd->sdhc_clk. I will make another patch before or after this one
for the multi-instance use case. I will do the same in the v2 of my mx5 clock
series (for gd->sdhc_clk). I think I also have the same stuff for mx25.
