I do not see a problem here.
Access of vs->vs_tpg[target] in vhost_scsi_handle_vq() happens only when
the SET_ENDPOINT is done. At that time, the vs->vs_tpg[] is already
ready. Even if the vs->vs_tpg[target] is changed to NULL in
CLEAR_ENDPOINT, it is safe since we fail the request if
vs->vs_tpg[target] is NULL.

The struct tcm_vhost_tpg is per target. I assume you want to point
private_data to the 'struct tcm_vhost_tpg *vs_tpg[VHOST_SCSI_MAX_TARGET]'
