This multiplexing shenanigans seems to be all the rage these days...

You forgot the most important part; how to handle the clock given two
different requests.

(This will also get a bit more painful when/if the core starts
disabling the clock when a card is idle)

Fall back to polling?

Memory/resource leak.
