PM / Runtime: Return special error code if runtime PM is disabled
Some callers of pm_runtime_get_sync() and other runtime PM helper functions, scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() in particular, need to distinguish error codes returned when runtime PM is disabled (i.e. power.disable_depth is nonzero for the given device) from error codes returned in other situations. For this reason, make the runtime PM helper functions return -EACCES when power.disable_depth is nonzero and ensure that this error code won't be returned by them in any other circumstances. Modify scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() to check the error code returned by pm_runtime_get_sync() and ignore -EACCES. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
