Bart Van Assche cd84a62e00 block, scsi: Change the preempt-only flag into a counter
The RQF_PREEMPT flag is used for three purposes:
- In the SCSI core, for making sure that power management requests
  are executed even if a device is in the "quiesced" state.
- For domain validation by SCSI drivers that use the parallel port.
- In the IDE driver, for IDE preempt requests.
Rename "preempt-only" into "pm-only" because the primary purpose of
this mode is power management. Since the power management core may
but does not have to resume a runtime suspended device before
performing system-wide suspend and since a later patch will set
"pm-only" mode as long as a block device is runtime suspended, make
it possible to set "pm-only" mode from more than one context. Since
with this change scsi_device_quiesce() is no longer idempotent, make
that function return early if it is called for a quiesced queue.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
