mmc_sdio_init_card() is supposed to be called if your card is removable,
because the card might have changed.  It has a fast path that's enabled
by MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER.  (Nicolas explained this back in October.)

You absolutely should not enable MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME if your host has a
removable card.  It's an awful hack, and you just found an example of
where it breaks.

If you need mmc_sdio_resume() to have an even faster path for you, we can
talk about that and see if it makes sense.  Misusing MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME to
get a powered SDIO resume is just wrong.

Thanks,
