In some cases mmc_suspend_host() is not able to claim the
host and proceed with the suspend process. The core returns
-EBUSY to the host controller driver. Unfortunately, the
host controller driver does not pass on this information
to the PM core and hence the system suspend process continues.
In these cases the MMC core gets to an unexpected state
during resume and multiple issues related to MMC crop up.
1. Host controller driver starts accessing the device registers
before the clocks are enabled which leads to a prefetch abort.
2. A file copy thread which was launched before suspend gets
stuck due to the host not being reclaimed during resume.
To avoid such problems pass on the -EBUSY status to the PM core
from the host controller driver. With this change, MMC core
suspend might still fail but it does not end up making the
system unusable. Suspend gets aborted and the user can try
suspending the system again.

The last time we discussed this, didn't we plan to fix this differently ?
Holding the return code of mmc_suspend_host in a separate variable and
passing it to the caller
of omap_hsmmc_suspend looks more sane to me.

Correct. I missed it. I will reformat the patch and resend it.

I just pushed a new revision (V2) with above changes. I also added extra information
(explanation with code snippet). Kindly let me know your review for the same.
