This is a fundamental restriction.

I rewriting the code to use mmc core card detect polling framework.
static int mxs_mmc_get_cd(struct mmc_host *mmc)
{
struct mxs_mmc_host *host = mmc_priv(mmc);
return !(readl(host->base + HW_SSP_STATUS) &
BM_SSP_STATUS_CARD_DETECT);
}
static const struct mmc_host_ops mxs_mmc_ops = {
...
.get_cd = mxs_mmc_get_cd,
};
static int mxs_mmc_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
...
mmc_caps |= MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL;
...
}
It looks pretty simple and mmc core code has taken care of the case
of power management. So if this looks fine to you, I will go for it
in v2 of the patch set.

Shawn
