[U-Boot] [PATCH][v2] fsl_esdhc: Correcting esdhc timeout counter calculation

- Timeout counter value is set as DTOCV bits in SYSCTL register
  For counter value set as timeout,
  Timeout period = (2^(timeout + 13)) SD Clock cycles

- As per 4.6.2.2 section of SD Card specification v2.00, host should
  cofigure timeout period value to minimum 0.25 sec.

- Number of SD Clock cycles for 0.25sec should be minimum
	(SD Clock/sec * 0.25 sec) SD Clock cycles
	= (mmc->tran_speed * 1/4) SD Clock cycles

- Calculating timeout based on
	(2^(timeout + 13)) >=  mmc->tran_speed * 1/4
	Taking log2 both the sides and rounding up to next power of 2
	=> timeout + 13 = log2(mmc->tran_speed/4) + 1
