blk_queue_enter() may be called from the suspend path so I don't think
that the above change will work. As an example, the UFS driver submits a
SCSI START STOP UNIT command from its runtime suspend callback. The call
chain is as follows:

ufshcd_wl_runtime_suspend()
__ufshcd_wl_suspend()
ufshcd_set_dev_pwr_mode()
ufshcd_execute_start_stop()
scsi_execute_cmd()
scsi_alloc_request()
blk_queue_enter()
blk_execute_rq()
blk_mq_free_request()
blk_queue_exit()

Thanks,

Bart.
