Subject: block: disable runtime-pm for blk-mq

From: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]>

commit 765e40b675a9566459ddcb8358ad16f3b8344bbe upstream.

The blk-mq code lacks support for looking at the rpm_status field, tracking active requests and the RQF_PM flag.

Due to the default switch to blk-mq for scsi people start to run into suspend / resume issue due to this fact, so make sure we disable the runtime PM functionality until it is properly implemented.
