This is wrong.  If the port is already suspended then so are all the 
drives below the port.  Hence there is no need to sync the cache or 
stop the device.

This is not the right approach.  You should look instead at 
scsi_dev_type_suspend() in scsi_pm.c.  If the device is already runtime 
suspended then the routine should return immediately.
