The workqueue used by mmc_detect_change() was made freezable, so hosts could call the routine at any time but it wouldn't do anything until the system sleep was over. A more flexible approach would avoid freezing the workqueue, and allow it to process card removals at any time. But card insertions would be ignored if the mmc_host device was suspended; at resume time the core probes for changes that occurred during the sleep.
