Subject: [PATCH v5 0/3] fix runtime PM for SD card readers

hi,

(According to Alan Stern, "as far as I know, all") SD card readers send
MEDIA_CHANGED unit attention notification on (runtime) resume. We cannot
use runtime PM with these devices as I/O always fails in that case.

This fixes runtime PM for SD cardreaders. I'd appreciate any feedback.

To enable runtime PM for an SD cardreader number 0:0:0:0, do:

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

thank you,
                           martin

----------------
v5: (thank you Bart)
* simplify the sense request itself and remove unnecessary code

v4: (thank you Bart and Alan)
* send SENSE REQUEST in sd instead of adding a global scsi error flag.

v3: (thank you Bart)
 * create a new BLIST entry to mark affected devices instead of the
   sysfs module parameter for sd only. still, only sd implements handling
   the flag for now.
 * cc linux-pm list

v2:

 * add Documentation

Martin Kepplinger (3):
  scsi: devinfo: add new flag BLIST_MEDIA_CHANGE
  scsi: sd: send REQUEST SENSE for BLIST_MEDIA_CHANGE devices in
    runtime_resume()
  scsi: devinfo: add BLIST_MEDIA_CHANGE for Ultra HS-SD/MMC usb
    cardreaders
