[PATCH v4 1/2] dt-bindings: mmc: Extend keep-power-in-suspend beyond SDIO
From: Kamal Dasu
Date: Tue Jul 28 2026 - 15:08:25 EST
keep-power-in-suspend already documents exactly the requirement
needed on (e)MMC platforms where firmware accesses the card directly
during resume. Rather than add a separate property describing the
same contract, drop its "SDIO only" restriction and document the
(e)MMC use case alongside the existing SDIO one.

Changes in v4:
- Dropped no-mmc-poweroff-suspend entirely and extended
keep-power-in-suspend instead, per Krzysztof: the two properties
described the same "don't power off across suspend/resume"
contract.
Changes in v3:
- Renamed from no-mmc-sleep; dropped S_A_TIMEOUT framing per Ulf.
Changes in v2:
- New patch, replacing v1's card-level quirk, per Ulf.
