The count is decreased when the card is removed (or failed to be initialized), thus runtime suspend is prevented as long as there is a functional card inserted. I am wondering what you think would be a good autosuspend timeout in this case? It seems to me that the only thing the rtsx driver really care about is to tell the parent device that it needs to be runtime resumed during a certain timeframe, more or less it would like to inherit the parents settings. Other mmc hosts, not being usb-mmc devices, are using an autosuspend timeout of ~50-100ms but that doesn't seem like good value here, right?
