Okay.

You need to explain why.

I think you'll find this logic will only reduce the clock frequency by
20MHz once and only once.

After the first:

card_clock = (UHS_SDR104_MAX_DTR - pcr->dma_error_count * 20000000)

... happens, the first comparison:

card_clock == UHS_SDR104_MAX_DTR

... will fail on subsequent attempts and will not allow it to be
reduced any further. Did you test it?
