This series fixes the empty-tray detect loop seen on a Realtek RTS5129
USB SD reader, while also avoiding USB register accesses from the USB
runtime autosuspend callback.
Compared with the previous RFC, this no longer qualifies media by issuing
SD/MMC commands from ->get_cd(). The rtsx_usb_sdmmc child still reports
the raw card-detect state initially, then lets the normal MMC rescan path
probe the media. If an initialization command times out before a card is
attached, the SD child suppresses the raw SD_CD signal until the tray/card
detect line drops again.
The parent rtsx_usb change removes USB I/O from runtime autosuspend and
keeps only the existing Memory Stick autosuspend deferral based on cached
card-status bits. Raw SD_CD is not used as a parent autosuspend blocker,
because this reader can assert it for an empty tray.
Runtime-tested on a StarLite Mk V with Realtek RTS5129 (0bda:0129), using
these changes as a matched rtsx_usb/rtsx_usb_sdmmc/rtsx_usb_ms module set
on Linux 7.0.0-27-generic.
Device enumeration:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:0129 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTS5129 Card Reader Controller
/: Bus 001.Port 001: Dev 001, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/12p, 480M
|__ Port 004: Dev 003, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=rtsx_usb, 480M
Card inserted:
mmc0: new UHS-I speed SDR50 SDXC card at address 544c
mmcblk0: mmc0:544c LX2TB 1.82 TiB
mmcblk0: p1
Deep S3 with the card inserted:
PM: suspend entry (deep)
ACPI: PM: Waking up from system sleep state S3
PM: suspend exit
After resume, the card remained visible:
NAME SIZE TYPE FSTYPE MOUNTPOINTS
mmcblk0 1.8T disk
`-mmcblk0p1 1.8T part exfat
Empty tray:
mmc0: card 544c removed
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-4/power/control=auto
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-4/power/runtime_status=suspended
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-4/power/runtime_usage=0
With the empty tray left inserted for about three minutes, no repeated
MMC detect attempts, command timeouts, or USB reset churn were observed.

The runtime autosuspend callback currently queries card status and
clears OCP by issuing USB register accesses. This can run from the
USB runtime-PM path itself, which is the wrong place to start more
device I/O.
Keep a cached copy of the card-status bits from normal status reads
instead. During runtime autosuspend, use that cached value only to
preserve the existing Memory Stick autosuspend deferral.
Do not treat raw SD_CD as an autosuspend blocker, because tray-based
SD readers can assert SD_CD with an empty tray. A real SD card is
protected by the SD/MMC child runtime-PM usage once powered.
Also stop clearing OCP from the runtime autosuspend callback, so the
callback does not issue USB commands.

Some Realtek USB SD readers with a tray keep raw SD_CD asserted
when an empty tray is inserted. The MMC core then repeatedly tries to
initialize non-existent media, sees command timeouts, calls ->get_cd()
again, and starts the same detect cycle over.
Do not qualify media by open-coding MMC commands in ->get_cd().
Instead, let the normal MMC rescan path probe the card. If an
initialization command times out before a card has been attached,
suppress the raw SD_CD signal so the host can settle and the USB
parent can autosuspend.
Clear the suppression only when raw SD_CD drops. On the affected tray
reader, changing media requires removing and reinserting the tray, so
a low CD transition is the signal that a new insertion attempt can be
trusted again.
