Hi Adrian,

First of all, enter_state(suspend_state_t state) uses 
mutex_trylock(&system_transition_mutex).
Second, even that happens, in ufshcd_queuecommand(), below logic will 
break the cycle, by
fast failing the PM request (below codes are from the code tip with this 
whole series applied).

         case UFSHCD_STATE_EH_SCHEDULED_FATAL:
                 /*
                  * ufshcd_rpm_get_sync() is used at error handling 
preparation
                  * stage. If a scsi cmd, e.g., the SSU cmd, is sent from 
the
                  * PM ops, it can never be finished if we let SCSI layer 
keep
                  * retrying it, which gets err handler stuck forever. 
Neither
                  * can we let the scsi cmd pass through, because UFS is 
in bad
                  * state, the scsi cmd may eventually time out, which 
will get
                  * err handler blocked for too long. So, just fail the 
scsi cmd
                  * sent from PM ops, err handler can recover PM error 
anyways.
                  */
                 if (cmd->request->rq_flags & RQF_PM) {
                         hba->force_reset = true;
                         set_host_byte(cmd, DID_BAD_TARGET);
                         cmd->scsi_done(cmd);
                         goto out;
                 }
                 fallthrough;
         case UFSHCD_STATE_RESET:
