Subject: [PATCH v3 2/6] scsi: add flag to skip the runtime PM calls on the host

With previous change, now the ata port runtime suspend will happen as:

disk suspend --> scsi target suspend --> scsi host suspend --> ata port
suspend

ata port(parent device) suspend need to schedule scsi EH which will resume
scsi host(child device). Then the child device resume will in turn make
parent device resume first. This is kind of recursive.

This patch adds a new flag Scsi_Host::eh_noresume.
ata port will set this flag to skip the runtime PM calls on scsi host.
