It would be nice to get an explanation about this behavior.
it seems that even of the rate provided by CLKID_SD_EMMC_X_CLK0 (main clock
controller) is correct, the eMMC cannot reliably tune with it.

Could you elaborate on this ?

ATM the EMMC driver will not use this provider. If this is the only reason, it
could be done later.

Is the NAND driver "picky" as well ?
