Thread 1
=======

suspend_handler_of_a_random_device()
{
    return failure;
}

Thread 2
=======

suspend_handler_of_our_mmc_host_controller()
{
    invoke our sdio suspend handler and power down the card (directly);
    return success;
}

If thread 2 wins => everything is cool
If thread 1 wins => our driver will not be able to resume

The race begins after mac80211 invokes our driver's power off handler,
which is using pm_runtime_put_sync().
