Uses block layer runtime pm helper functions in
scsi_runtime_suspend/resume.
Remove scsi_autopm_* from sd open/release path and check_events path.
And remove the quiesce call in runtime suspend path, as we know there is
no request to quiesce for the device.

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.

OK, that would be safer, thanks for the suggestion.
I often set the autosuspend delay before allowing runtime PM for the
device, since we forbid it in scsi_sysfs_add_sdev.


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

OK.

Thanks,
Aaron
