I got it.

On my environment, VCC & VCCQ condition differs like below.
S2I: VCC=ON & VCCQ=ON
S2R: VCC=OFF & VCCQ=OFF
So, I think the MMC subsystem should not enter sleep mode
on such environment. If this is board-specific, I'm thinking
I should add a new flag to fix the issue which is entering
sleep mode even if VCCQ=OFF.

Oops. I should have described a use case. I thought one of use cases was
using mmc_test driver. So, I thought we should keep VCC and VCCQ on to
use mmc_test driver.

If we didn't take care of mmc_test driver after unbind, I think so.
