[PATCH 1/3] scsi: fix potential dead lock for host runtime pm

[Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@xxxxxxxxx>]

In later patch hooks will be added to do ata port runtime pm through scsi layer.
libata schedules scsi EH to handle suspend, then dead lock happens
because scsi EH in turn waits for the ongoing suspend, as below.

<scsi host runtime suspend>
 scsi_autopm_put_host
   pm_runtime_put_sync
     <scsi_host runtime pm status updated to RPM_SUSPENDING>
     ......
       <call libata hook to do suspend>
         <wake up scsi EH to handle suspend>
         <wait for scsi EH ...>

<scsi EH wake up>
 scsi_error_handler
   <resume scsi host>
   scsi_autopm_get_host
     pm_runtime_get_sync
     .....
       <sleep to wait for the ongoing scsi host suspend>

This patch fixes the dead lock by checking if there is ongoing runtime PM request.
If there is ongoing runtime PM request, scsi_autopm_get_host_noresume is called to
increase the usage count, but don't resume the host.
