Subject: [PATCH v2] scsi: fix async probe regression

Commit a7a20d1 "[SCSI] sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain"
moved sd probe work out of reach of wait_for_device_probe().  Allow it
to be synced via scsi_complete_async_scans().

 v2: James: don't wrapper scsi_complete_async_scans()

 Kept the Tested-by tag since this is equivalent to v1.
