And looking at my earlier pwrseq_wlcore.c hacks, I only added pinctrl handling to work around a GPIO glitch on some SoCs for deeper idle states.

Do you have some test patch for this? Sounds like you're thinking about adding this to the MMC framework? If the only issue is if the card must be powered off when ifconfig wlan0 returns, I think that's a cosmetic issue. For example, switching to wlcore test mode after ifconfig wlan0 down might need the card powered down, but then again the test mode resets things anyway.

And to me it sounds like option 2 above should do the trick, not sure if we need something beyond that.
