John Garry fbefe22811 scsi: libsas: Don't always drain event workqueue for HA resume
For the hisi_sas driver, if a directly attached disk is removed during
suspend, a hang will occur in the resume process:

The background is that in commit 16fd4a7c59 ("scsi: hisi_sas: Add device
link between SCSI devices and hisi_hba"), it is ensured that the HBA device
cannot be runtime suspended when any SCSI device associated is active.

Other drivers which use libsas don't worry about this as none support
runtime suspend.

The mentioned hang occurs when an disk is removed during suspend. In the
removal process - from PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT event processing - we call into
scsi_remove_device(), which is being processed in the HA event workqueue.
Here we wait for all suppliers of the SCSI device to resume, which includes
the HBA device (from the above commit). However the HBA device cannot
resume, as it is waiting for the PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT to be processed (from
calling sas_resume_ha() -> sas_drain_work()). This is the deadlock.

There does not appear to be any need for the sas_drain_work() to be called
at all in sas_resume_ha() as it is not syncing against anything, so allow
LLDDs to avoid this by providing a variant of sas_resume_ha() which does
"sync", i.e. doesn't drain the event workqueue.

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.

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.
