Drop work_pending() test from mwifiex_sdio_card_reset(). As work_pending() becomes %false before sdio_card_reset_worker() starts executing, it doesn't really protect anything. reset_host may change between mmc_remove_host() and mmc_add_host(). Make sdio_card_reset_worker() cache the target mmc_host so that it isn't affected by mwifiex_sdio_card_reset() racing with it. Only compile tested.
