The SCSI sd driver probes SCSI devices asynchronously. The sd_remove() function, called indirectly by device_del(), waits until asynchronous probing has finished. Since the block layer queue must only be cleaned up after probing has finished, device_del() has to be called before blk_cleanup_queue(). Hence revert commit bf2cf3baa20b.
