What does "software reset for all" means?

Normally, sdhci hosts that enters runtime suspend doesn't power off
the card (there are some exceptions like PCI variants).

So, what's so special here and how does the reset come into play? I
don't see sdhci doing a reset in sdhci_runtime_suspend|resume_host()
and nor doesn the callback from the sdhci-sprd.c variant doing it.

Can sdhci_sprd_reset() be called when the host is runtime suspended?
That sounds like a bug to me, no?
