[PATCH v3 0/4] scsi: add runtime PM workaround for SD cardreaders

[Martin Kepplinger]

hi,

In short: there are SD cardreaders that send MEDIA_CHANGED on
(runtime) resume. We cannot use runtime PM with these devices as
I/O always fails. I'd like to discuss a way to fix this
or at least allow us to work around this problem:

For the full background, the discussion started in June 2020 here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20200623111018.31954-1-martin.kepplinger@xxxxxxx/

I'd appreciate any feedback.

Especially: Any naming-preferences for the flags? And is the specific
device that I need this workaround for (Generic Ultra HS-SD/MMC, connected
via USB) too "generic" maybe? Not sure about what possibilities I'd have here...

 * create a new BLIST entry to mark affected devices instead of the
   sysfs module parameter for sd only. still, only sd implements handling
   the flag for now.
 * cc linux-pm list

v2:
