As it stands, you have a basic problem with respect to system
suspend/hibernation. As I said before, the PM workqueue is frozen
during system suspend/hibernation transitions, so waiting for an async
resume request to complete then is pointless.
Agreed. I noticed that any attempt to call request_firmware() from
driver system resume callback functions causes a deadlock if these
calls happen before the block device has been resumed.
Thanks,
Bart.
Does this patch look reasonable to you? It hasn't been fully tested
yet, but the resume is now performed synchronously.

I think that you still need to check blk_queue_dying(q) under
wait_even() or you may not stop waiting when this happens.
Got it.

Analogously here, you may not stop waiting when test_bit(GD_DEAD,
&disk->state) is true.

And I would rename blk_pm_resume_queue() to something like
blk_pm_queue_active() because it is a bit confusing as it stands.
Apart from the above remarks this makes sense to me FWIW.
Got it. I'll fix these in the next version and run some tests before sending it out. Thanks for the review.
