The "values" I refer to is those which we "calculated" during the
tuning process.

What I had in mind, was that we should save these values at runtime PM
suspend. And restore them at runtime PM resume. For some mmc
controllers the "values" are typically just a some bits in a
controller register, but that might not be true for all cases.

Regarding the temperature change, etc. I think that is what the
periodic retuning should be taken care off.

Could you elaborate on why the "values" is not available to the driver?

I am not sure how to interpret this. Is the context about system PM or
runtime PM?

Great! Looking forward to review them!
