sdio: introduce API for special power management features

Browse source 
This patch series provides the core changes needed to allow SDIO cards to
remain powered and active while the host system is suspended, and let them
wake up the host system when needed.  This is used to implement
wake-on-lan with SDIO wireless cards at the moment.  Patches to add that
support to the libertas driver will be posted separately.

This patch:

Some SDIO cards have the ability to keep on running autonomously when the
host system is suspended, and wake it up when needed.  This however
requires that the host controller preserve power to the card, and
configure itself appropriately for wake-up.

There is however 4 layers of abstractions involved: the host controller
driver, the MMC core code, the SDIO card management code, and the actual
SDIO function driver.  To make things simple and manageable, host drivers
must advertise their PM capabilities with a feature bitmask, then function
drivers can query and set those features from their suspend method.  Then
each layer in the suspend call chain is expected to act upon those bits
accordingly.
