When sdhci_write_block_to_card() is called to transfer data from the FIFO to the SD bus, the data is already present in the buffer and we have to consume it directly.
See the description of the 'Buffer Write Enable' bit from the 'Present State' register (prnsts::SDHC_SPACE_AVAILABLE) in Table 2.14 from the SDHCI spec v2: Buffer Write Enable This status is used for non-DMA write transfers. The Host Controller can implement multiple buffers to transfer data efficiently. This read only flag indicates if space is available for write data. If this bit is 1, data can be written to the buffer. A change of this bit from 1 to 0 occurs when all the block data is written to the buffer. A change of this bit from 0 to 1 occurs when top of block data can be written to the buffer and generates the Buffer Write Ready interrupt. In our case, we do not want to overwrite the buffer, so we want this bit to be 0, then set it to 1 once the data is written onto the bus. This is probably a copy/paste error from commit d7dfca0807 ("hw/sdhci: introduce standard SD host controller").
