Subject: scsi: osst: drop SCSI devie reference taken before

In the function __os_scsi_tape_open, scsi_device_get is called to take a
reference of the device. The reference should be dropped when it is no
longer used. However, when scsi_block_when_processing_errors returns a
false value, the reference is not dropped. This patch fixes the bug.
