[SCSI] iscsi_ibft, be2iscsi, iscsi_boot: fix boot kobj data lifetime management
be2iscsi passes the boot functions its phba object which is allocated in the shost, but iscsi_ibft passes in a object allocated for each item to display. The problem is that iscsi_boot_sysfs was managing the lifetime of the object passed in and doing a kfree on release. This causes a double free for be2iscsi which frees the shost in its pci_remove. This patch fixes the problem by adding a release callback which the drivers can call kfree or a put() type of function (needed for be2iscsi which will do a get/put on the shost).
