[PATCH 2/2] mmc: sdhci-brcmstb: "mmc1: Internal clock never stabilised." seen on 72113

The problem is in the .shutdown callback that was added to the
sdhci-iproc and sdhci-brcmstb drivers to save power in S5. The
shutdown callback will just call the sdhci_pltfm_suspend() function
to suspend the lower level driver and then stop the sdhci system
clock. The problem is that in some cases there can be a worker
thread in the "system_freezable_wq" work queue that is scanning
for a device every second. In normal system suspend, this queue
is suspended before the driver suspend is called. In shutdown the
queue is not suspended and the thread my run after we stop the
sdhci clock in the shutdown callback which will cause the "clock
never stabilised" error. The solution will be to have the shutdown
callback cancel the worker thread before calling suspend (and
stopping the sdhci clock).

NOTE: This is only happening on systems with the Legacy RPi SDIO
core because that's the only controller that doesn't have the
presence signal and needs to use a worker thread to do a 1 second
poll loop.
