Overall this looks good!

I think it may be possible to split the patch.
First a patch that moves mmc_card_set_sleep() and mmc_card_clr_sleep()
into mmc_card_sleep() and mmc_card_awake(), which is a good
refactoring in its own right. Then a patch doing the rest of the changes.

(But that's no big deal to me if Chris is OK with this.)

So now this function will return an errorcode if notification fails,
maybe add some kerneldoc...

So no risk in ignoring poweroff notification failure here I guess..
(Just thinking aloud.)

This looks new, can you explain in the code as comments
or in the commit message when SHORT and LONG notifications are
used and why?

Are you sure you should not deselect the card on an SPI host also if
you power off? (I'm just confused, better to ask...)

So if I understand correctly we power off if possible, else we
set the card to sleep. (Looks good.)

So a powered-off card will be reinitialized here, nice!
