Actually that last step isn't needed.  But if you don't do it, the device 
will wake up from runtime suspend every time the block layer polls it.  So 
you probably do want to either turn off polling or increase the polling 
interval significantly.

I don't understand this.  As far as I know, runtime-PM support in the SCSI 
and block layers has been complete for many years.  If you have to do 
anything extra (like applying the patch in the email you mentioned) then 
something is broken.  The device should be able to go into runtime suspend 
just fine with the current code -- even when a file system is mounted.
