Comment(by pgf):

 if either driver wishes the card to remain powered across suspend,
 then the hang does not occur.

 if we enable the no_console_suspend kernel commandline parameter,
 then the hang does not occur.

 when the hang occurs, it happens inside of:
     - bus_remove_device(), called from
     - device_del(), called from
     - sdio_remove_func(), called from
     - mmc_sdio_remove(), called from
     - mmc_suspend_host() after mmc_sdio_suspend() has returned -ENOSYS

 the OLPC copy of mmc_suspend_host() has been modified
 to return -ENOSYS if no card function has requested power be maintained.

 i'd provide a "real" stack backtrace, except for the issue of the problem
 not reproducing if no_console_suspend is enabled.

 it's clear that there's mismanagement of devices happening somewhere.
