Since scsi_prep_fn() may be invoked concurrently with scsi_remove_device(), keep the queuedata pointer in scsi_remove_device(). This patch fixes a kernel oops that can be triggered by USB device removal. See also http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg56254.html. This patch has been tested as follows: - Verified that repeated removal (100.000 times) of a SCSI disk (sd) device went fine: $ time for ((i=0;i<100000;i++)); do \ echo 'id_ext=0002c9030005f34e,ioc_guid=0002c9030005f34e,dgid=fe800000000000000002c9030005f34f,pkey=ffff,service_id=0002c9030005f34e' \ >/sys/class/infiniband_srp/srp-mlx4_0-1/add_target; \ done real 28m49.672s user 0m4.000s sys 3m25.950s - Verified that a fio data integrity test on a dm device ran fine. The dm device was configured to communicate via two different paths (iSCSI + SRP). The SRP initiator device node was removed and recreated repeatedly.
