Same as all other functions that hooked up with mtd ops, such as
_read/_write/_lock/_unlock, the _resume function also need to call the
lower level controller's prep/unprep functions to properly handle runtime
pm and mutex.

I didn't try suspend/resume during writing, but found accessing registers
without enabling clock when system resumed.
