This introduces no functional changes, but makes the code drastically more
readable, reducing the amount of dereferencing performed inside functions
throughout the SDIO core.

For example, reduce:
	sdio_release_host(bus->sdiodev->func1);
to:
	sdio_release_host(func1);

I still have problems with this change. The example above does not convince me. I explained my rule of thumb regarding using dereferences and will stick to that.

Fixup a few inconsistently named pointers whilst we are at it ie.

sdiod -> sdiodev

All I see is 40 more lines to read.
