Krzysztof Kozlowski 94cd101100 mmc: sdio: store owner from modules with sdio_register_driver()
Modules registering driver with sdio_register_driver() might
forget to set .owner field.  The field is used by some of other kernel
parts for reference counting (try_module_get()), so it is expected that
drivers will set it.

Solve the problem by moving this task away from the drivers to the core
code, just like we did for platform_driver in
commit 9447057eaf ("platform_device: use a macro instead of
platform_driver_register").

Since many drivers forget to set the .owner, this effectively will fix
them.  Examples of fixed drivers are: ath6kl, b43, btsdio.c, ks7010,
libertas, MediaTek WiFi drivers, Realtek WiFi drivers, rsi, siano,
wilc1000, wl1251 and more.
