Subject: [PATCH] MMC: Add 400ms to CAFE SD controller resume path


The CAFE SD controller takes a long time to completely resume
and w/o this patch, we do not redetect an existing card but
instead detect it as a new one. Even with MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME
enabled, this leads to the partition table on the device being
wiped out.
    
See http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/6532 for gory details.
