It is required to hold the queue lock when calling blk_run_queue_async() to avoid that a race between blk_run_queue_async() and blk_cleanup_queue() is triggered. Additionally, remove the get_device() and put_device() calls from fc_bsg_goose_queue. It is namely the responsibility of the caller of fc_bsg_goose_queue() to ensure that the bsg queue does not disappear while fc_bsg_goose_queue() is in progress.
