[RFC PATCH] mmc: move clock gating work to power efficient workqueue

[Zoran Markovic]

From: Shaibal Dutta <shaibal.dutta@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Instead of binding the clock gating work to the CPU that scheduled it,
allow the scheduler to select the best CPU to handle it. This extends
idle residency times and conserves power.

This functionality is enabled when CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT is selected.
