Some of the Mobile SoC's, SDHI is  a wakeup source for deep sleep. 
For that use case, We need to configure CD/WP pin as GPIO rather than function.
So looks like we don't have any use case like that here.

Agreed, if cd pin is configured as function. But for some use case It can be a wakeup source,
If it is configured as GPIO.

Run time PM enabled is in SDHI. So it will turn off both the clocks during suspend.

RZ/G2L document says we should not turn off cd clock during suspend. Otherwise card detection
Won't work. So whether SDHI can reliably work in this case? Basically if there is no activity,
this module can go into suspend state. If the cd clock turned off and card detection fails
during resume, how the SDHI functionality going to work?

OK.

Easiest is to handle it in SDHI driver. May be to address "cd" clock for RZ/G2L SoC
we need special handling for suspend/resume callbacks.

@Wolfram Sang, What do you think?


Note:-
Currently I am configuring CD pin as gpio rather than function due to some reset issue[1]. After reset
cd detection fails. But it works ok, if it configured as GPIO.
