USB: usb-storage: use kthread_stop() for the control thread
This patch (as923) makes usb-storage's control thread use
kthread_should_stop()/kthread_stop(). The scanning thread can't be
similarly converted until the core kthread implementation allows
threads to call do_exit().
The advantage of this change is that we can now be certain the control
thread has terminated before storage_disconnect() returns. This will
simplify the locking requirements when autosuspend support is added.
