I actually think you are simply perpetuating the mess in the existing MMC driver where everything is driven by a core which as a result is a twisty maze of exceptions and flags to say "except for this" "except for that". The core MMC code only knows when the *core* parts are no longer requiring power. It shouldn't know about anything deeper and if you are using the runtime PM layer the runtime PM refcounting can do all your work.
