You forgot to do something like this too:
diff --git a/drivers/scsi/st.c b/drivers/scsi/st.c
index c7d2c1c5a299..9d04929f03a1 100644

}
- retval = scsi_ioctl(STp->device, STp->disk, file->f_mode, cmd_in, p);
+ retval = scsi_ioctl(STp->device, NULL, file->f_mode, cmd_in, p);
if (!retval && cmd_in == SCSI_IOCTL_STOP_UNIT) {
/* unload */
STp->rew_at_close = 0;
Other than that:
