I'm not sure what you mean here.
if you run "shutdown now" then the system does not shut down and only
wifi goes to sleep mode?

the power sequence driver supports the following two properties, see [0]:
- post-power-on-delay-ms
- power-off-delay-us

Those are not set, meaning no delay is applied.
For reference, these are the delays which are used on the Endless Mini
(which also has a RTL8723BS module): [1]
Do you know more about these delays (whether they are needed and how
long they are supposed to be)?

please check my previous mails. I think that GPIOX_21 is the wifi host
wakeup pin because it is marked as "input" on the 3.10 kernel.
you can change the order of the GPIOs inside the sdio_pwrseq node, but
all GPIOs are managed together (meaning there's virtually no delay
between enabling the first and the second one).
I am not sure if using an MMC power sequence is the right thing to do,
because the card is detected for me regardless of whether GPIOX_11 is
HIGH or LOW. The RTL8723BS driver currently does not manage any GPIOs.
