libertas_sdio and pxamci suspend issue

[Daniel Mack]

Hi,

I'm currently updating the kernel of a PXA3xx platform that used to be
bases on 3.0. On that, a libertas is connected to the PXA mci controller
via SDIO.

The card itself works fine on both the old version and 3.16, but on
3.16, I see the following error when trying to put the system to suspend:

[   13.459502] mmc0: new SDIO card at address 0001

The problem is caused by libertas' if_sdio_suspend() returning -ENOSYS here:

       /* If we're powered off anyway, just let the mmc layer remove the
         * card. */
        if (!lbs_iface_active(card->priv))
                return -ENOSYS;


According to the comment, the code assumes the function is called from
the mmc layer, which isn't the case - the stack trace leading to this
function looks like this:

Bisecting is tricky due to other details unfortunately.

Any ideas?
