I don't quite get it, how can you prevent block layer PM from iniating
hba runtime resume by quiescing the scsi devices? Block layer PM
iniates hba async runtime resume in blk_queue_enter(). But quiescing
the scsi devices can only prevent general I/O requests from passing
through scsi_queue_rq() callback.

Say hba is runtime suspended, if an I/O request to sda is sent from
block layer (sda must be runtime suspended as well at this time),
blk_queue_enter() initiates async runtime resume for sda. But since
sda's parents are also runtime suspended, the RPM framework shall do
runtime resume to the devices in the sequence hba->host->target->sda.
In this case, ufshcd_resume() still runs concurrently, no?

Thanks,

Can Guo.
