[SCSI] sg: fix q->queue_lock on scsi_error_handler path
sg_rq_end_io() is called via rq->end_io. In some rare cases, sg_rq_end_io calls blk_put_request/blk_rq_unmap_user (when a program issuing a command has gone before the command completion; e.g. by interrupting a program issuing a command before the command completes). We can't call blk_put_request/blk_rq_unmap_user in interrupt so the commit c96952ed7031e7c576ecf90cf95b8ec099d5295a uses execute_in_process_context(). The problem is that scsi_error_handler() calls rq->end_io too. We can't call blk_put_request/blk_rq_unmap_user too in this path (we hold q->queue_lock). To avoid the above problem, in these rare cases, this patch always uses schedule_work() instead of execute_in_process_context().
