For some technologies, e.g. an ATA bus, resuming can take multiple
seconds. Waiting for resume to finish can cause a very noticeable delay.
Hence this commit that restores the behavior from before "scsi: core: pm:
Rely on the device driver core for async power management" for most SCSI
devices.
This commit introduces a behavior change: if the START command fails, do
not consider this as a SCSI disk resume failure.

Hi Greg,
It has been reported that this patch causes a regression, namely disks
not coming back after a resume. That issue is worse than the issue fixed
by this patch - eliminating a delay. Please drop this patch from the
stable tree.
A revert of this patch has been posted on the linux-scsi mailing list.
