[SCSI] sd: call blk_pm_runtime_init before add_disk
Sujit has found a race condition that would make q->nr_pending
unbalanced, it occurs as Sujit explained:
"
sd_probe_async() ->
add_disk() ->
disk_add_event() ->
schedule(disk_events_workfn)
sd_revalidate_disk()
blk_pm_runtime_init()
return;
Let's say the disk_events_workfn() calls sd_check_events() which tries
to send test_unit_ready() and because of sd_revalidate_disk() trying to
send another commands the test_unit_ready() might be re-queued as the
tagged command queuing is disabled.
So the race condition is -
Thread 1 | Thread 2
sd_revalidate_disk() | sd_check_events()
...nr_pending = 0 as q->dev = NULL| scsi_queue_insert()
blk_runtime_pm_init() | blk_pm_requeue_request() ->
| nr_pending = -1 since
| q->dev != NULL
"
The problem is, the test_unit_ready request doesn't get counted the
first time it is queued, so the later decrement of q->nr_pending in
blk_pm_requeue_request makes it unbalanced.
Fix this by calling blk_pm_runtime_init before add_disk so that all
requests initiated there will all be counted.
