Alan, Ritesh,

Yes, I am starting to understand more about what goes on here.
Although I need help to test as I don't have the HW.
As you already guessed, I suspect the problem is within the runtime PM
deployment in the drivers/mmc/host/rtsx_usb_sdmmc.c.

Let me start by first give you some background to how the mmc core
deals with runtime PM.

*)
The mmc core manages most of the calls to the pm_runtime_get|put*()
and pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() for the mmc host device. The gets/puts
are done when the core is about to access the mmc host device, via the
mmc host ops driver interface. You may search for calls to the
mmc_claim|release_host() functions to find out when the gets/puts are
done.

**)
The mmc core have also deployed runtime PM for the mmc *card* device
and which has the runtime PM autosuspend feature enabled with a 3s
default timeout. One important point is that the mmc card device has
the mmc host device assigned as being its parent device. I guessing
the reason to why you are encountering strange 3s intervals of runtime
PM suspend/resume is related to this.

Now, in this case, the rtsx_usb_sdmmc driver seems to need a bit of
special runtime PM deployment, as the calls to pm_runtime_get|put*()
also controls the power to the usb device and thus also the power to
the card. I am guessing that's done via the usb device being assigned
as parent for the mmc host's platform device!?

By reviewing the code of the rtsx_usb_sdmmc driver, particularly how
it calls pm_runtime_get|put() I am guessing those calls may not be
properly deployed. Perhaps rtsx_usb_sdmmc should convert to use the
usb_autopm_put|get_interface() and friends, although I didn't want to
make that change at this point so instead I have cooked a patch that
might fixes the behaviour.

Ritesh, can you please try it out to see what happens?
