hi,

In short: there are SD cardreaders that send MEDIA_CHANGED on
runtime resume. We cannot use runtime PM with these devices as
I/O basically always fails. I'd like to discuss a way to fix this
or at least allow users to work around this problem:

For the full background, the discussion started in June 2020 here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20200623111018.31954-1-martin.kepplinger@puri.sm/

and I sent the first of these patches in August, as a reference:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20200824190400.12339-1-martin.kepplinger@puri.sm/
so this is where I'm following up on.

I'm not sure whether maintaining an in-kernel quirk for specific devices
makes sense so here I suggest adding a userspace knob. This way there's at
least a chance to use runtime PM for sd cardreaders that send MEDIA_CHANGED.

I'd appreciate any feedback.
