In dasd_alias_disconnect_device_from_lcu the device is removed from any list on the LCU. Afterwards the LCU is removed from the lcu list if it does not contain devices any longer. The lcu->lock protects the lcu from parallel updates. But to cancel all workers and wait for completion the lcu->lock has to be unlocked. If two devices are removed in parallel and both are removed from the LCU the first device that takes the lcu->lock again will delete the LCU because it is already empty but the second device also tries to free the LCU which leads to a list corruption of the lcu list. Fix by removing the device right before the lcu is checked without unlocking the lcu->lock in between.
