Per the SD physical layer simplified specification V4.10,
section 4.6.2, CSD version 1.0 SD card should use taac, nsac
and r2w_factor for calculating the data access time. But the
taac and nsac for SDHC(CSD version 2.0) are always fixed and
the software should use the recommended value for timeout. When
parsing the CSD, we sanely set them to zero for SDHC(CSD version
2.0), all the calculation for timeout_ns and timeout_clk is zero
as well. So what we actually want to limit here is either SDHC
case or unreasonable timeout reported by the cards. In principle
we should at least be able to remove the bogus check for the
mmc_card_blockaddr.

Changes in v2:
- rephrase the changelog and only remove mmc_card_blockaddr.

Shouldn't we still be ensuring 'data->timeout_clks = 0' for the 'timeout_us

I have a question that why we expose data->timeout_clks for host
drivers?

I quick look at how the host drivers use it and find it almost does
the same thing as the core layer if card->host->ios.clock is present.
So shouldn't we *always* set data->timeout_clks to zero and fold the
extra cycle(actually it's NSAC) into data->timeout_ns so that the host
drivers only need to care about data->timeout_clks?

Sorry. s/care about data->timeout_clks/care about data->timeout_ns?

Pedantically, the calculation should, in fact, be using the actual clock
frequency not the target frequency card->host->ios.clock.

yes. I assumed generally the actual clock shouldn't be less too much
than target frequency, otherwise timeout_us may actually be much larger
than limit_us if the actual clock is lower enough, even if the core
think it shouldn't be that case estimated by target clock. But it seems 
pointless to argue this here since that's too pedantical as you said.

Thanks for sharing your thought.
