We're still getting runtime suspends, but now at 2-second intervals.   
This is partly because the driver isn't calling
pm_runtime_mark_last_busy(), but there may be more to it.  The 2-second 
period is the default autosuspend timeout for USB devices.  However, I 
don't see the activity that rtsx_usb_get_card_status() should produce 
when rtsx_usb_suspend() runs; I don't know why not.

We're also getting occasional I/O attempts while the device is
suspended.  They must be on some other pathway, not the one fixed by
the patch above.  Let's see if we can find out just where they come
from.

Ritesh, please try applying this patch on top of the previous one.  It 
will produce output in the kernel log whenever these bad I/O attempts 
occur.  Also, enable dynamic debugging for the rtsx_usb driver:

	echo 'module rtsx_usb =p' >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

before starting the test.  (You may need to mount a debugfs filesystem 
on /sys/kernel/debug first.)
