sdio: introduce API for special power management features
This patch series provides the core changes needed to allow SDIO cards to remain powered and active while the host system is suspended, and let them wake up the host system when needed. This is used to implement wake-on-lan with SDIO wireless cards at the moment. Patches to add that support to the libertas driver will be posted separately. This patch: Some SDIO cards have the ability to keep on running autonomously when the host system is suspended, and wake it up when needed. This however requires that the host controller preserve power to the card, and configure itself appropriately for wake-up. There is however 4 layers of abstractions involved: the host controller driver, the MMC core code, the SDIO card management code, and the actual SDIO function driver. To make things simple and manageable, host drivers must advertise their PM capabilities with a feature bitmask, then function drivers can query and set those features from their suspend method. Then each layer in the suspend call chain is expected to act upon those bits accordingly.
