Subject: [PATCH 1/3] scsi: add expecting_media_change flag to error path

SD Cardreaders (especially) sometimes lose the state during suspend
and deliver a "media changed" unit attention when really only a
(runtime) suspend/resume cycle has been done.

For such devices, I/O fails when runtime PM is enabled, see below.

Add a flag for drivers to use when this is expected. It's handled in the
scsi core error path and allows to use (runtime) PM when it has
not been possible before on said hardware.

The "downside" is that we rely more on users not to really change
the medium (SD card) *during* a runtime suspend/resume, i.e. when not
unmounting.

To enable runtime PM for an SD cardreader (here, device number 0:0:0:0),
do the following:

echo 0 > /sys/module/block/parameters/events_dfl_poll_msecs
echo 1000 > /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/power/autosuspend_delay_ms
echo auto > /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/power/control
