It's not tremendously complicated.  I'm reasonably familiar with the 
SCSI stack, so if you want to ask some questions go ahead.  The main 
barriers to SCSI runtime PM are:

	When should devices be autosuspended?

	How can autosuspend avoid interfering with the SCSI error 
	handler thread?

Discussions like this might profitably be moved over to the linux-scsi 
mailing list.
