I'm not so sure about enabling PWRSAV, given that even Linux keeps that
disabled. See mmci_set_clkreg():
clk |= MCI_CLK_ENABLE;
/* This hasn't proven to be worthwhile */
/* clk |= MCI_CLK_PWRSAVE; */
Which is BTW your own change from 2009. :-)

The clk_disable part looks fine to me.
Thanks,
Stephan
