Hi Maya,

Thank you a lot for working idle time BKOPS.

I tested with this patch. It's working fine.(Suspend/resume is also working 
well.)
Test controller is sdhci controller. 
When i tested the performance with iozone, i didn't find that performance is 
decreased.
Well, as Chris is mentioned, do you have any test plan?
So I will test more with this patch, because i want to test with dw-mmc 
controller, too.

We didn't need to check whether mmc_stop_bkops is success or not?
If mmc_stop_bkops() is failed, then bkops is continuously running.
