This screams to be done in generic way.
Something like suspend_workqueue() and resume_workqueue();

In addition to that I just found that .suspend function sometimes can
return -ENOSYS, which triggers card removal. I wrongly remove that chunk
of code.

To make the thing picture perfect I would have to invest more time to
it, I will do so as soon as I finish my exams.

Meanwhile the current patch already fixes all but corner cases or rather
nasty hang on suspend with any MMC/SD card inserted.
