Someone just asked about the default autosuspend delay, and I realized
your patch series doesn't set one.  Since we don't know the properties
of the disk drive at this point (or even whether the device is a disk
drive), the only safe course is to call

	pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(&sdev->sdev_gendev, -1);

before calling blk_pm_runtime_init().  Then autosuspends will be 
prevented until userspace writes a non-negative value into the device's 
control/autosuspend_delay_ms file.

The kerneldoc for blk_pm_runtime_init() should mention that the caller 
needs to set the autosuspend delay beforehand.
