There is more to this story to tell. Initially, the suspend callback did
return an error upon failing to set the flags. This was dropped by
commit 330b4e4be937 ("brcmfmac: Add wowl support for SDIO devices.") as
it set the flags only for wowl and that wowl would only be enabled if
the host supports the capability flags:
+#ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP
+ /* wowl can be supported when KEEP_POWER is true and (WAKE_SDIO_IRQ
+ * is true or when platform data OOB irq is true).
+ */
+ if ((sdio_get_host_pm_caps(sdiodev->func[1]) & MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER) &&
+ ((sdio_get_host_pm_caps(sdiodev->func[1]) &
MMC_PM_WAKE_SDIO_IRQ) ||
+ (sdiodev->pdata->oob_irq_supported)))
+ bus_if->wowl_supported = true;
+#endif
However, MMC_PM_KEEP_POWER is also needed for the non-wowl case. I
restored that in commit bdf1340cf20f ("brcmfmac: fix sdio suspend and
resume"), but overlooked the error code return also needed to be restored.
Also note that the wifi chip (the term "radio" does not quite cover it)
has not really lost power. It is quite common that it is not powered
through the SDIO bus. With the power-sequence support in the MMC stack
these days the suspend may result in loss of power. Otherwise, it is
just the bus that loses power (and clock) and the flags affect what
tricks the MMC stack tries to pull to get the device accessible again
upon resume.
Maybe you can incorporate some of this in the commit message, but you
should at least add:
