[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.19-6.1] mmc: rtsx: reset power state on suspend

From: Sasha Levin

[ Upstream commit eac85fbd0867c25ac517f58fae401d65c627edff ]

When rtsx_pci suspends, the card reader hardware powers off but the sdmmc
driver's prev_power_state remains as MMC_POWER_ON. This causes sd_power_on
to skip reinitialization on the next I/O request, leading to DMA transfer
timeouts and errors on resume 20% of the time.

Add a power_off slot callback so the PCR can notify the sdmmc driver
during suspend. The sdmmc driver resets prev_power_state, and sd_request
checks this to reinitialize the card before the next I/O.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Good - `sd_power_on` has been part of this file since initial creation.
The forward declaration added in the patch is just to allow the function
(defined later in the file) to be called from `sd_request` (defined
earlier).

### Analysis Summary

**What problem the commit solves:**

This commit fixes a suspend/resume regression in Realtek PCI-E SD card
readers where, after suspend, 20% of resume attempts fail with DMA
transfer timeouts because:

1. During suspend, `rtsx_pci_power_off()` powers down the card reader
hardware
2. But the sdmmc driver's `prev_power_state` remains `MMC_POWER_ON`
3. On resume, when `sd_power_on()` is called, it sees `prev_power_state
== MMC_POWER_ON` at line 912 and returns immediately without
reinitializing the hardware
4. The first I/O attempt then fails with DMA timeout because the
hardware was never re-powered

**The fix has three parts:**
1. Adds a `power_off` callback to `struct rtsx_slot` (1 line in header)
2. In the PCR suspend paths (both system and runtime), calls
`slot->power_off()` to notify the sdmmc driver before powering off
hardware
3. In the sdmmc driver: implements `rtsx_pci_sdmmc_power_off()` to reset
`prev_power_state = MMC_POWER_OFF`, and adds a check in
`sd_request()` to call `sd_power_on()` if `prev_power_state ==
MMC_POWER_OFF`

**Stable kernel criteria assessment:**
- **Fixes a real bug:** Yes - 20% failure rate on resume with SD card
operations
- **Obviously correct:** Yes - the logic is straightforward: notify the
driver that hardware was powered off so it reinitializes properly
- **Small and contained:** Yes - 32 lines of insertion across 3 files,
all within the rtsx subsystem
- **No new features:** Correct - this adds only internal plumbing to fix
power state tracking
- **Tested:** Author tested 300+ s2idle cycles
- **Impact:** Users with Realtek card readers experience I/O errors,
filesystem journal failures, and card detection loss after
suspend/resume

**Risk assessment:**
- Low risk - the changes are confined to the rtsx card reader subsystem
- The `power_off` callback is properly guarded with NULL checks (`if
(slot->p_dev && slot->power_off)`)
- The `sd_request` power-on check has proper error handling
- The drv_remove function properly clears the callback
- No impact on other subsystems

**Dependencies:**
- Self-contained - no dependencies on other commits
- The companion delay patch (aced969e9bf37) has already been selected
for stable and is independent
- The code being modified (`rtsx_slot`, `rtsx_pci_suspend`,
`sd_request`) exists in all recent stable trees

### Verification

- **Verified** that `sd_power_on()` at line 912 returns early when
`prev_power_state == MMC_POWER_ON`, confirming the bug mechanism
- **Verified** via `git show aced969e9bf37` that the companion patch
(delay increase) has a Fixes: tag and was independently picked for
stable
- **Verified** via `git show ed0d7f8559dbd` (stable branch version) that
the delay patch was already applied to stable with `[Upstream commit
...]` marker
- **Verified** via lore.kernel.org that this is a 2-patch series (0/2
cover letter), both fixing suspend/resume failures, with testing
showing patch 1 reduces failures from 20% to 4%
- **Verified** that `struct rtsx_slot` currently only has `p_dev` and
`card_event` fields by reading `include/linux/rtsx_common.h`
- **Verified** that the suspend paths properly hold `pcr->pcr_mutex`
when calling the callback
- **Verified** the NULL check guards (`slot->p_dev && slot->power_off`)
in both suspend functions
- **Verified** that `sd_power_on()` has existed since the driver was
created (`ff984e57d36e8`) - the forward declaration is just for
compilation order
- **Verified** that `rtsx_pci_sdmmc_drv_remove` properly clears
`power_off = NULL` to prevent stale callbacks

This is a clear, well-tested bug fix for a user-impactful suspend/resume
issue. It's small, contained, properly guarded, and fixes a 20% failure
rate. It meets all stable kernel criteria.

**YES**
