Hi,
Sashiko found issues with your patch. I curated the list and left only those
which I see as valid. Please have a look at these issues.
Thank you and happy hacking,
Wolfram

> This patch introduces a clk_mask field in platform data to replace a hardcoded
> 32-bit clock mask, supporting 11-bit clock dividers on newer SoCs like the
> RZ/G3L. It updates renesas_sdhi_set_clock() to use the dynamic mask and sets
> up backward-compatible default mask values.
