Yes, it is called once at boot while the card is mmc_rescan()ed.

But that's not interesting, because the card is then powered down, and
will only be powered on again when it is probed with a driver.

Sorry, I meant mmc_sdio_restore_host.

You should see something like this:

sdio_bus_probe - >
    ... (runtime PM function calls) ... ->
           mmc_power_restore_host ->
                 mmc_sdio_power_restore ->
                        mmc_sdio_init_card -> ...

We have 1 report where the latter mmc_sdio_init_card fails at this
point, and I'm interested to know whether it fails for you, too (and
if yes, where). If it is not even called, I'd appreciate if you can
check out where does this flow break in your case.

OK.

The interesting part is actually what happens after sdio_bus_probe(),
not before it.

Is mmc_power_restore_host being called ? mmc_sdio_power_restore ?
mmc_sdio_init_card ? etc...

I'm also attaching a patch that requires hosts to explicitly indicate
whether they support powering off/on their cards after boot (which
would prevent SDIO core from powering off you card after boot since
your host doesn't indicate that capability).

Can you please see if the problem goes away with it ?

Thanks,
Ohad.
