Coming back to the initial discussion and patch which were motivated by the fact that after runtime suspend I can't wake-up on card detect event, I have the feeling we don't have the same assumption about runtime PM. >From what you and Adrian told me, I should not use runtime PM if I have no way to wake-up. In your minds, the way to wake-up is to use an externel GPIO because the controller will be 'totally' disabled, isn't it? On my side, runtime PM allows me to save power when the sdhci controller is not used. If I can disable two clocks out of three, I should use runtime PM. Do you agree? If not, tell me how I can convince you :) Otherwise, next step is to rework my patch but I think I have no other solution that not calling sdhci_runtime_suspend_host if I expect to use the card detect irq of the controller.
