Subject: [216/262] [SCSI] Make scsi_free_queue() kill pending SCSI commands

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@....org>

commit 3308511c93e6ad0d3c58984ecd6e5e57f96b12c8 upstream.

Make sure that SCSI device removal via scsi_remove_host() does finish
all pending SCSI commands. Currently that's not the case and hence
removal of a SCSI host during I/O can cause a deadlock. See also
"blkdev_issue_discard() hangs forever if underlying storage device is
removed" (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40472). See also
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/27/6.
