Commit6aa0365a3c("ata: libata-scsi: Avoid deadlock on rescan after device resume") modified ata_scsi_dev_rescan() to check the scsi device "is_suspended" power field to ensure that the scsi device associated with an ATA device is fully resumed when scsi_rescan_device() is executed. However, this fix is problematic as: 1) It relies on a PM internal field that should not be used without PM device locking protection. 2) The check for is_suspended and the call to scsi_rescan_device() are not atomic and a suspend PM event may be triggered between them, casuing scsi_rescan_device() to be called on a suspended device and in that function blocking while holding the scsi device lock. This would deadlock a following resume operation. These problems can trigger PM deadlocks on resume, especially with resume operations triggered quickly after or during suspend operations. E.g., a simple bash script like: for (( i=0; i<10; i++ )); do echo "+2 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm echo mem > /sys/power/state done that triggers a resume 2 seconds after starting suspending a system can quickly lead to a PM deadlock preventing the system from correctly resuming. Fix this by replacing the check on is_suspended with a check on the return value given by scsi_rescan_device() as that function will fail if called against a suspended device. Also make sure rescan tasks already scheduled are first cancelled before suspending an ata port.

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.
