mmc: core: Enable runtime PM management of host devices
Currently those host drivers which have deployed runtime PM, deals with the runtime PM reference counting entirely by themselves. Since host drivers don't know when the core will send the next request through some of the host_ops callbacks, they need to handle runtime PM get/put between each an every request. In quite many cases this has some negative effects, since it leads to a high frequency of scheduled runtime PM suspend operations. That due to the runtime PM reference count will normally reach zero in-between every request. We can decrease that frequency, by enabling the core to deal with runtime PM reference counting of the host device. Since the core often knows that it will send a seqeunce of requests, it makes sense for it to keep a runtime PM reference count during these periods. More exactly, let's increase the runtime PM reference count by invoking pm_runtime_get_sync() from __mmc_claim_host(). Restore that action by invoking pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() and pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() in mmc_release_host(). In this way a runtime PM reference count will be kept during the complete cycle of a claim -> release host.
