[PATCH] scsi core: fix uninitialized variable error

James:

This patch (as649) fixes an uninitialized variable error (sdev) in 
__scsi_add_device.  I don't understand why the compiler didn't flag the 
error.

It also removes a pair of calls to get_device and put_device; they are no 
longer needed since scsi_target_reap now uses a work_queue.
