Subject: [PATCH] firewire: fw-sbp2: better fix for NULL pointer dereference in
 scsi_remove_device

Patch "firewire: fw-sbp2: fix NULL pointer deref. in scsi_remove_device"
had the unintended effect that firewire-sbp2 could not be unloaded
anymore until all SBP-2 devices were unplugged.

We now fix the NULL pointer bug by reacquiring a reference to the sdev
instead of holding a reference to the sdev (and to the module) all the
time.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de>

This applies on top of current linux-2.6.git master as well as on top of
linux1394-2.6.git master.
