Subject: [PATCH] blkpm: avoid sleep when holding queue lock

In blk_post_runtime_resume, an autosuspend request will be initiated for
the device. Since we are holding the queue lock, we can't sleep and thus
we should use the async version to initiate an autosuspend, i.e.
pm_request_suspend instead of pm_runtime_suspend, which might sleep.

I didn't turn on the lock debugging config options while doing test so
this issue didn't show up until recently I have all those lock debugging
options turned on, a warning instantly showed up. While it is correctly
using pm_request_autosuspend in pre-v7 series, and is brought by me
mistakenly, sorry for this.
