Suppose the eMMC is put in sleep state when doing suspend, at that point 
the kernel crashes. The kernel crash is supposed to be dumped to the 
same eMMC by some other software than the kernel itself. But this 
software do not have support for waking up the eMMC from sleep and is 
thus not able to store the dump.
