[PATCH v3 0/7] mmc: sunxi: Add runtime PM support

Hi,

Since it's introduction, our MMC controller has had its external clocks
running all the time.

While that was working great, the power usage and most importantly the EMI
that it generated was pretty bad.

Let's implement some runtime_pm hooks with an autosuspend to shut down the
whole block when the MMC is not active.

However, some SDIO devices will not probe properly if we keep shutting down
the controller, so the autosuspend is disabled for the SDIO devices.

Let me know what you think,
Maxime

Changes from v2:
  - Dropped the patches already applied
  - Do not power up or down the card during a runtime_resume or
    runtime_suspend, but only take care of the controller
  - In order to do the above, split the set_ios function into smaller
    chunks that can be called from set_ios and our runtime_resume hook

Changes from v1:
  - Disable entirely the controller
  - Made sure the driver would work with CONFIG_PM off
  - Fixed an issue with the SDIO devices
  - Rebased on top of 4.16
