Bart Van Assche 7cedffec8e block: Make blk_get_request() block for non-PM requests while suspended
Instead of allowing requests that are not power management requests
to enter the queue in runtime suspended status (RPM_SUSPENDED), make
the blk_get_request() caller block. This change fixes a starvation
issue: it is now guaranteed that power management requests will be
executed no matter how many blk_get_request() callers are waiting.
For blk-mq, instead of maintaining the q->nr_pending counter, rely
on q->q_usage_counter. Call pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() every time a
request finishes instead of only if the queue depth drops to zero.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
