With the dropped interrupts SDIO is broken on veyron jerry when
the Marvell 8997 Bluetooth controller sends events while
suspending. On the system MMC remains powered during suspend, but SDIO
isn't configured as wakeup. On this system the problem can be fixed by
processing the interrupt after resuming, however from the discussion
it seems this isn't universally a good solution.

Not sure if this is just a special case that is best worked around in
the downstream kernel of the device, or if this could affect other
systems and it would be worth to address it upstream (e.g. by
processing the dropped interrupt on resume if MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER is
set and the SDIO interrupt is not configured as wakeup).
