You should have realized yourself that this code is racy. If a request is
allocated just before scsi_device_quiesce() is called and dispatched just
after the device state has been changed into SDEV_QUIESCE then the loop that
waits for all commands to complete will wait forever due to the SCSI prep
function returning BLKPREP_DEFER.
