[PATCH v4] sd: Fix device removal NULL pointer dereference

[PATCH v4] sd: Fix device removal NULL pointer dereference

[Bart Van Assche]

Since scsi_prep_fn() may be invoked concurrently with
scsi_remove_device(), keep the queuedata pointer in
scsi_remove_device(). This patch fixes a kernel oops that
can be triggered by USB device removal. See also
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg56254.html.

This patch survived the following test in which removal of a
SCSI disk (sd) device was triggered 100.000 times, where removal
was triggered frequently while LUN scanning was still ongoing:

$ time for ((i=0;i<100000;i++)); do \
echo 'id_ext=0002c9030005f34e,ioc_guid=0002c9030005f34e,dgid=fe800000000000000002c9030005f34f,pkey=ffff,service_id=0002c9030005f34e' \
>/sys/class/infiniband_srp/srp-mlx4_0-1/add_target; \
done

real    28m49.672s
user    0m4.000s
