The commit 356fd2663cff ("scsi: Set request queue runtime PM status back to active on resume") fixed up the inconsistent RPM status between request queue and device. However changing request queue RPM status shall be done only on successful resume, otherwise status may be still inconsistent as below, Request queue: RPM_ACTIVE Device: RPM_SUSPENDED This ends up soft lockup because requests can be submitted to underlying devices but those devices and their required resource are not resumed.
