In case of AUTO BKOPS, the eMMC Device should perform internal GC 
in the same way as in case of MANUAL BKOPS.
The only difference is a host awareness. 
Although there is no requirement in the spec, I think the driver can
give some time to the device to perform/complete its internal GC during the idle time.
Thus I think we can check the BKOPS_STATUS on Runtime suspend.

Thanks,
Alex
