OK, updated patch follows, with a changelog.

I've added this check to user.c too, because that code can be called
independently of the one in disk.c .  Also, if resume is user space-driven,
it's a good idea to wait for all of the device probes to complete before
continuing.

Thanks,
Rafael

Subject: PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume

There is a race between resume from hibernation and the asynchronous
scanning of SCSI devices and to prevent it from happening we need to
call scsi_complete_async_scans() during resume from hibernation.

In addition, if the resume from hibernation is userland-driven, it's
better to wait for all device probes in the kernel to complete before
attempting to open the resume device.
