John Garry reported a deadlock that occurs when trying to access a
runtime-suspended SATA device. For obscure reasons, the rescan procedure
causes the link to be hard-reset, which disconnects the device.
The rescan tries to carry out a runtime resume when accessing the device.
scsi_rescan_device() holds the SCSI device lock and won't release it until
it can put commands onto the device's block queue. This can't happen until
the queue is successfully runtime-resumed or the device is unregistered.
But the runtime resume fails because the device is disconnected, and
__scsi_remove_device() can't do the unregistration because it can't get the
device lock.
The best way to resolve this deadlock appears to be to allow the block
queue to start running again even after an unsuccessful runtime resume.
The idea is that the driver or the SCSI error handler will need to be able
to use the queue to resolve the runtime resume failure.
This patch removes the err argument to blk_post_runtime_resume() and makes
the routine act as though the resume was successful always. This fixes the
deadlock.

Move the code for runtime power management from blk-core.c into the
new source file blk-pm.c. Move the corresponding declarations from
<linux/blkdev.h> into <linux/blk-pm.h>. For CONFIG_PM=n, leave out
the declarations of the functions that are not used in that mode.
This patch not only reduces the number of #ifdefs in the block layer
core code but also reduces the size of header file <linux/blkdev.h>
and hence should help to reduce the build time of the Linux kernel
if CONFIG_PM is not defined.
