The only one I remember is scsi_ioctl_reset(), in which scsi_autopm_get_host()
is called before allocating this request, that means it is enough to put
host up for handling RESET. Also this request shouldn't have entered the block
request queue.

Or are there other cases in which request allocation isn't related with
blk_queue_enter()?
