Actually, no. I saw problems with the SD Card slot, which doesn't
have MMC_KEEP_POWER. Problems showed up when no card was inserted
across suspend/resume. In other words:

1. At boot time, slot is all setup and configured to 400kHz.

2. Suspend

3. Resume; clock registers are reset (by suspend/resume) and not
restored since dw_mmc still thinks slot is configured for 400kHz due
to host->current_speed cache.

4. Insert card.

5. No code sees any need to change the clock for detecting the card,
since everyone thinks it's at 400kHz. ...but it's not.

Sorry to be confusing. I was trying to explain why the old code works
fine in many cases. It's because the core MMC code tends to adjust
the clock a lot around suspend/resume. When it does that, it works
around this problem. ...but I found one case where suspend/resume
would happen and the MMC core didn't adjust the clock.

Effectively, yes. As Jaehoon points out, that means we can actually
eliminate the "force" parameter to dw_mci_setup_bus().


I will send a new version out that eliminates the "force" parameter
and updates the commit message to (hopefully) be clearer.
