Subject: [PATCH-next v2 2/2] scsi: fix iscsi rescan fails to create block device

When the three iscsi operations delete, logout, and rescan are concurrent
at the same time, there is a probability of failure to add disk through
device_add_disk(). The concurrent process is as follows:

T0: scan host // echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/host1/scsi_host/host1/scan
T1: delete target // echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/host1/session1/target1:0:0/1:0:0:1/delete
T2: logout // iscsiadm -m node --login
T3: T2 scsi_queue_work
T4: T0 bus_probe_device

T0                          T1                     T2                     T3

                                                                   __scsi_remove_target
                                                                   sdev->sdev_state == SDEV_CANCEL
                                                                   continue;

                                                 __iscsi_unbind_session
                                                  iscsi_session_event
                                                 device_del
                                                 // delete session
T4:
// create the block, its parent is 1:0:0:1
// If kobject 1:0:0:1 does not exist, it won't go down
__device_attach_async_helper
 device_lock
 ...
 __device_attach_driver
  driver_probe_device
   really_probe
    sd_probe
     device_add_disk
      register_disk
       device_add
      // error

The block is created after the seesion is deleted.
When T2 deletes the session, it will mark block'parent 1:0:01 as unusable:
T2
device_del
 kobject_del
  sysfs_remove_dir
   __kernfs_remove
   // Mark the children under the session as unusable
    while ((pos = kernfs_next_descendant_post(pos, kn)))
		if (kernfs_active(pos))
			atomic_add(KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, &pos->active);

Then, create the block:
T4
device_add
 kobject_add
  kobject_add_varg
   kobject_add_internal
    create_dir
     sysfs_create_dir_ns
      kernfs_create_dir_ns
       kernfs_add_one
        if ((parent->flags & KERNFS_ACTIVATED) && !kernfs_active(parent))
		goto out_unlock;
		// return error

This error will cause a warning:
kobject_add_internal failed for block (error: -2 parent: 1:0:0:1).
In the lower version (such as 5.10), there is no corresponding error handling, continuing
to go down will trigger a kernel panic, so cc stable.

Therefore, creating the block should not be done after deleting the session.
More practically, we should ensure that the target under the session is deleted first,
and then the session is deleted. In this way, there are two possibilities:

1) if the process(T1) of deleting the target execute first, it will grab the device_lock(),
and the process(T4) of creating the block will wait for the deletion to complete.
Then, block's parent 1:0:0:1 has been deleted, it won't go down.

2) if the process(T4) of creating block execute first, it will grab the device_lock(),
and the process(T1) of deleting the target will wait for the creation block to complete.
Then, the process(T2) of deleting the session should need wait for the deletion to complete.

Fix it by removing the judgment of state equal to SDEV_CANCEL in
__scsi_remove_target() to ensure the order of deletion. Then, it will wait for
T1's mutex_lock(scan_mutex) and device_del() in __scsi_remove_device() will wait for
T4's device_lock(dev).
But we found that such a fix would cause the previous problem:
commit 81b6c9998979 ("scsi: core: check for device state in __scsi_remove_target()").
So we use get_device_unless_zero() instead of get_devcie() to fix the previous problem.

Fixes: 81b6c9998979 ("scsi: core: check for device state in __scsi_remove_target()")
