Good question.  I'm slightly hesitant to turn biu_clk off in this
patch, though.  Specifically interrupts are still enabled at this
point in suspend.  I  guess most interrupts shouldn't be going off
right now (nobody is accessing storage, right?), but I could imagine
that a card detect or an SDIO interrupt at just the wrong time could
cause our ISR to go off _after_ this function is called.  The
interrupt handling function doesn't know to turn the BIU clock back on
so you'd get a hang.

...you'll also (I think) get a hang in exynos which has a "no_irq"
function and tries to access dw_mmc without turning on the biu clock.
...of course that wouldn't be hard to fix, but...


Turning off the biu clock when it's not needed seems like a good idea,
but I think it should be a separate patch.  Also, unlike the ciu clock
leaving the biu clock on doesn't seem to hurt anything on the system
I'm currently testing on.

Wow, duh.  Thanks for catching.

OK, sounds good.  I'll spin this again.
