This is fine to pick up _only_ if you don't care about suspend/resume.
If you care about suspend/resume then someone needs to first write a
patch that will re-init all "corecfg" values after power is turned on.

Technically I think this should probably use "pm runtime" and not
normal suspend/resume hooks.  Any time we end up pm runtime suspended
then I think our power will go off (because of genpd?) and we need to
restore values.

I'm not sure if this should be done in a generic way where we try to
save and restore all values in the "sdhci_arasan_soc_ctl_map" or if we
should try to be smarter...
