It seems that the signal clock is also used and required, somehow, by
the controller it self.

It is shown during init, when writing to CFG while the divider is set
to 0 will crash the SoC. During voltage switch, the controller may crash
and the card may then fail to exit busy state if the clock is stopped.

To avoid this, it is best to keep the clock running for the controller,
except during rate change. However, we still need to be able to gate
the clock out of the SoC. Let's use the pinmux for this, and fallback
to gpio mode (pulled-down) when we need to gate the clock

Curious "feature" of the IP, but the solution looks good to me.
