This is probably because hal probes the DVD drive every two seconds
looking for media changes.  However that's not supposed to cause
rpm_resume to be called for the host unless runtime PM is allowed for
the DVD drive, which it isn't according to your listings below.  So
there's a bug somewhere.

This is the wrong directory (the class device, not the device itself).  
You should look at /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/device/power instead.  
And also /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/device/target6:0:0/power.

These values are correct; they show that the DVD drive is forbidden 
from doing a runtime suspend.
