While is testting LTSI-v4.1.13-rc1, we have found the following the failure
of mmcif.
1. mount mmc block
2. write data to mmc block
3. suspend/resume
4. write data to mmc block one again => happen kernel panic
(Probability in this test procedure is 100%)

We have used git bisect to find cause of failure in LTS-v4.1.13 to
LTSI-v4.1.13-rc1
and have found commit which cause failure.
(On LTS-v4.1.13 has not this failure)
  drivers: sh: Disable PM runtime for multi-platform ARM with genpd
  commit :cbc41d0a761bffb3166a413a3c77100a737c0cd7
That means there's a bug in Runtime PM handling of the sh_mmcif driver, or
in the MMC subsystem.

Usually such bugs cause a kernel hang on register access, not a NULL pointer
dereference, though.
Agree!

I doubt the bisected commit is where the *real* issue is. Looking into
the details for how system PM and runtime PM is deployed in sh_mmcif,
I believe some improvements are needed.

Actually, I made an attempt to modernize the PM code for sh_mmcif a while ago.

Whether that fixes the problem reported here, I have no idea. Although
if not, it should move the code to a position where it becomes easier
to properly fix this issue.

I am willing to help and rebase that patchset, but I require help in
testing since I haven't been able to get a hold of a HW. Can I count
on that?
Yes , I can help you test.
If you have rebased patchset, phease tell me.

Best regards,
Nguyen Viet Dung
