mmc: enable runtime PM by default

Browse Source 
Now that we have improved the runtime power management powerup/powerdown
code, we believe that MMC_CAP_POWER_OFF_CARD is no longer necessary:
runtime PM should now work everywhere.

The only hard evidence for introducing MMC_CAP_POWER_OFF_CARD was the
Marvell sd8686 wifi chip, which was believed to require external gpio
manipulation which wasn't supported by some boards.

After further investigation it was realized (and confirmed by Marvell
folks) that sd8686 requirements can be fulfilled by changing the reset
sequence itself, even if no external gpio is manipulated.

For further information, see the following thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-mmc@vger.kernel.org/msg04289.html

Enable this trivially for a release or two. If no problems are reported,
we will follow up with a more extensive patch to remove this flag
altogether. If problems are reported, we can look at whitelist/blacklist
possibilities as before.
