mmc: mmc_rescan detects card change in one run
With this patch, mmc_rescan can detect the removal of an mmc card and the insertion of (possibly another) card in the same run. This means that a card change can be detected without having to call mmc_detect_change multiple times. This change generalises the core such that it can be easily used by hosts which provide a mechanism to detect only the presence of a card reader cover, which has to be taken off in order to insert a card. Other hosts ("card detect" or "MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL") each receive an event when a card is removed and when a card is inserted, so it is sufficient for them if mmc_rescan handles only one event at a time. "Cover detect" hosts, however, only receive events about the cover status. This means that between 2 subsequent events, both a card removal and a card insertion can occur. In this case, the pre-patch version of mmc_rescan would only detect the removal of the previous card but not the insertion of the new card.
