[SCSI] fix race in scsi_target_reap
This patch (as1357) fixes a race in SCSI target allocation and release. Putting a target in the STARGET_DEL state isn't protected by the host lock, so an old target structure could be reused by a new device even though it's about to be deleted. The cure is to change the state while still holding the host lock. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
