Which is my feeling, too.
libata runs rescan as part of the device discovery, so really it will 
run after resume. And consequently resume really cannot wait for rescan 
to finish.

What I would be looking at is to decouple resume from libata device 
rescan, and have resume to complete before libata EH runs.
