Doug, your analysis is right.
But, let me suggest another approach.
After step #1, core layer actually call mmc_power_off because slot is empthy(get_cd() is '0').
Then, set_ios is requested with 'ios->clock'.
However, because current implementation doesn't update current_speed in case ios->clock is '0'.
It causes current_speed has invalid clock rate in resume of dw-mmc.

So, if we can update slot->clock properly, it will be fixed.

-static void dw_mci_setup_bus(struct dw_mci_slot *slot, bool force_clkinit)
+static void dw_mci_setup_bus(struct dw_mci_slot *slot)
 {
        struct dw_mci *host = slot->host;
        u32 div;
        u32 clk_en_a;

-       if (slot->clock != host->current_speed || force_clkinit) {
+       if (slot->clock && (slot->clock != host->current_speed)) {

-               slot->clock = ios->clock;
