sg_remove_sfp_usercontext() must not use sg_device_destroy() after
calling scsi_device_put().
sg_device_destroy() is accessing the parent scsi device request_queue.
Which will already be set to NULL when the preceding call to
scsi_device_put() removed the last reference to the parent scsi device.
The resulting NULL pointer exception will then crash the kernel.

Is it guaranteed that the above kref_put() call is the last kref_put()
call on sdp->d_ref? If not, how about inserting code between the
kref_put() call and the scsi_device_put() call that waits until
sg_device_destroy() has finished?
Thanks,
Bart.
