632e270e01 PM / Runtime: Return special error code if runtime PM is disabled
Some callers of pm_runtime_get_sync() and other runtime PM helper
functions, scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() in
particular, need to distinguish error codes returned when runtime PM
is disabled (i.e. power.disable_depth is nonzero for the given
device) from error codes returned in other situations.  For this
reason, make the runtime PM helper functions return -EACCES when
power.disable_depth is nonzero and ensure that this error code
won't be returned by them in any other circumstances.  Modify
scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() to check the
error code returned by pm_runtime_get_sync() and ignore -EACCES.

bc4f24014d [SCSI] implement runtime Power Management
This patch (as1398b) adds runtime PM support to the SCSI layer.  Only
the machanism is provided; use of it is up to the various high-level
drivers, and the patch doesn't change any of them.  Except for sg --
the patch expicitly prevents a device from being runtime-suspended
while its sg device file is open.

The implementation is simplistic.  In general, hosts and targets are
automatically suspended when all their children are asleep, but for
them the runtime-suspend code doesn't actually do anything.  (A host's
runtime PM status is propagated up the device tree, though, so a
runtime-PM-aware lower-level driver could power down the host adapter
hardware at the appropriate times.)  There are comments indicating
where a transport class might be notified or some other hooks added.

LUNs are runtime-suspended by calling the drivers' existing suspend
handlers (and likewise for runtime-resume).  Somewhat arbitrarily, the
implementation delays for 100 ms before suspending an eligible LUN.
This is because there typically are occasions during bootup when the
same device file is opened and closed several times in quick
succession.

The way this all works is that the SCSI core increments a device's
PM-usage count when it is registered.  If a high-level driver does
nothing then the device will not be eligible for runtime-suspend
because of the elevated usage count.  If a high-level driver wants to
use runtime PM then it can call scsi_autopm_put_device() in its probe
routine to decrement the usage count and scsi_autopm_get_device() in
its remove routine to restore the original count.

Hosts, targets, and LUNs are not suspended while they are being probed
or removed, or while the error handler is running.  In fact, a fairly
large part of the patch consists of code to make sure that things
aren't suspended at such times.

db5bd1e0b5 [SCSI] convert to the new PM framework
This patch (as1397b) converts the SCSI midlayer to use the new PM
callbacks (struct dev_pm_ops).  A new source file, scsi_pm.c, is
created to hold the new callback routines, and the existing
suspend/resume code is moved there.
