Hi Stefan,

Sorry for the delay.

Indeed sdhci seems to have some issues when combining runtime PM and system PM.

This is indeed needed, since else it isn't safe to invoke sdhci_suspend_host().

The problem is, that this wont do what you think I believe.

The device will be kept runtime PM resumed, since the PM core has
increased a runtime PM reference count for your device, in the
->prepare() phase (pm_runtime_get_noresume()).

Potentially pm_runtime_force_suspend() could help you accomplish what you want.

Similar comments as above.
