[SCSI] scsi: Device scanning oops for offlined devices (resend)

If a device gets offlined as a result of the Inquiry sent
during scanning, the following oops can occur. After the
disk gets put into the SDEV_OFFLINE state, the error handler
sends back the failed inquiry, which wakes the thread doing
the scan. This starts a race between the scanning thread
freeing the scsi device and the error handler calling
scsi_run_host_queues to restart the host. Since the disk
is in the SDEV_OFFLINE state, scsi_device_get will still
work, which results in __scsi_iterate_devices getting
a reference to the scsi disk when it shouldn't.

The following execution thread causes the oops:

CPU 0 (scan)				CPU 1 (eh)

                                          __scsi_iterate_devices
                                           get_device
scsi_device_dev_release_usercontext
                                          scsi_run_queue
                                            <---OOPS--->

The patch fixes this by changing the state of the sdev to SDEV_DEL
before doing the final put_device, which should prevent the race
from occurring.

Original oops follows:
