scsi_run_queue() examines all SCSI devices that are present on the starved list. Since scsi_run_queue() unlocks the SCSI host lock before running a queue a SCSI device can get removed after it has been removed from the starved list and before its queue is run. Protect against that race condition by increasing the sdev refcount before running the sdev queue. Also, remove a SCSI device from the starved list before __scsi_remove_device() decreases the sdev refcount such that the get_device() call added in scsi_run_queue() is guaranteed to succeed.
