It's not mandatory to support power management, like system
suspend/resume. However, as this looks like this is a driver for an
embedded SDIO device, you probably want this.

If that is the case, please assign the dev_pm_ops here and implement
the ->suspend|resume() callbacks.

I have no platform to test suspend/resume, so I have only a
theoretical understanding of this subject.

I see.

I understanding is that with the current implementation, the
device will be powered off on suspend and then totally reset
(including reloading of the firmware) on resume. I am wrong?

You are correct, for a *removable* SDIO card. In this case, the
mmc/sdio core will remove the corresponding SDIO card/device and its
corresponding SDIO func devices at system suspend. It will then be
redetected at system resume (and the SDIO func driver re-probed).

Although, as this is an embedded SDIO device, per definition it's not
a removable card (MMC_CAP_NONREMOVABLE should be set for the
corresponding mmc host), the SDIO card will stick around and instead
the ->suspend|resume() callback needs to be implemented for the SDIO
func driver.

This behavior sounds correct to me. You would expect something
more?

Yes, see above.

Kind regards
Uffe
