[GIT PULL] MMC fix for 2.6.39.

Hi Linus,

Please pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cjb/mmc.git for-linus

to revert mainline commit 26fc8775b51484 ("mmc: fix a race between
card-detect rescan and clock-gate work instances"), merged in .39-rc6.

We've received reports from Archlinux users that this patch causes
a boot time crash when probing MMC cards with CONFIG_MMC_CLKGATE=y.
I can't reproduce this myself, but I'd be more comfortable releasing
.39 with the previous behavior while we investigate. Thanks.

The following changes since commit eed631e0d741d1a1067cfc6d709fdf2363126f9c:
