Thanks!

Per MMC spec, eMMC bus speed is set as legacy mode(0~26MHz) at startup of
eMMC initializtion flow. Clock phase calculation is triggered in set_clock()
and it calculates taps based on phase_deg(<9>, <225>) in the dts file and the
current speed(1562500Hz), which causes the warning message you mentioned.
As the phase_deg in the dts file should be calculated with 100MHz.

But after some initialization flow, eMMC bus speed will be set to
correct speed(100MHz).
Clock phase calculation will be triggered again to get correct taps.
