Subject: memstick: rtsx_usb_ms: Runtime resume the device when polling for cards

From: Alan Stern <[email protected]>

commit 796aa46adf1d90eab36ae06a42e6d3f10b28a75c upstream.

Accesses to the rtsx usb device, which is the parent of the rtsx memstick device, must not be done unless it's runtime resumed.

Therefore when the rtsx_usb_ms driver polls for inserted memstick cards, let's add pm_runtime_get|put*() to make sure accesses is done when the rtsx usb device is runtime resumed.
