Keeping the power to the SDIO card during system wide suspend, consumes
energy. Especially on battery driven embedded systems, this can be a
problem. Therefore, let's change the behaviour into allowing the SDIO card
to be powered off, unless WOWL is supported and enabled.

Note that, the downside from this change, is that during system resume the
SDIO card needs to be re-initialized and the FW must be re-programmed. Even
if this may take some time to complete, it should we worth it, rather than
draining the battery.

Thanks for the patch, it is OK, and tested by Christophe (R.).
So you can add:
Tested-by: Christophe Roullier <christophe.roullier@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Acked-by: Yann Gautier <yann.gautier@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Acked-by is used by the driver maintainer, so I assume you mean
Reviewed-by?

Oops, sorry, yes I meant Reviewed-by.

Best regards,
Yann
