From 613be1f626e602c6744101a003e8fc5c180e1af9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bart Van Assche Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 14:20:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] remove a useless get/put_device pair in scsi_request_fn SCSI devices may only be removed by calling scsi_remove_device(). That function must invoke blk_cleanup_queue() before the final put of sdev->sdev_gendev. Since blk_cleanup_queue() waits for the block queue to drain and then tears it down, scsi_request_fn cannot be active anymore after blk_cleanup_queue() has returned and hence the get_device()/put_device() pair in scsi_request_fn is unnecessary.
