The scsi_end_request() function calls scsi_cmd_to_driver() indirectly
and hence needs the disk->private_data pointer. Avoid that that pointer
is cleared before all affected I/O requests have finished. This patch
avoids that the following crash occurs:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
