This will tell the mmc/sdio core to keep the SDIO card powered on
during system suspend. Thus, it doesn't need to re-initialize it at
system resume - and the firmware should not need to be re-programmed.
On the other hand, if you don't plan to support system wakeups, it
would probably be better to power off the card, to avoid wasting
energy while the system is suspended. I assume that means you need to
re-program the firmware as well. Normally, it's these kinds of things
that need to be managed from a ->resume() callback.

I don't know what wfx_sdio_remove() does, but for sure you would need
a ->resume() callback to make it possible to restore power/firmware.

Alright, let's simply leave this driver without having the PM
callbacks assigned. I guess we can revisit this at some later point.
The mmc core will log a message about the missing callbacks, in case
someone tries to execute system suspend/resume when the driver has
been probed.
Kind regards
