Hi Rafael,
 I just discovered that this patch has since been reverted - with an 'ack'
 from you:
----------
commit d8e2ac330f65bcf47e8894fe5331a7e8ee019c06
Author: Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Aug 9 09:32:21 2012 +0000

    mmc: sdio: Fix PM_SLEEP related build warnings
    
    Power management callbacks defined by SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS are only used if
    the PM_SLEEP Kconfig symbol has been defined. If not, the compiler will
    complain about them being unused. However, since the callback for this
    driver doesn't do anything it can just as well be dropped.

Unsurprisingly the problem which your patch fixed has come back.

Do you think we could get the patch back in again.  This time maybe we should
put some comments in there pointing out that having a function which does
nothing is very different from not having any function at all?

Thanks,
NeilBrown
