While accessing a scsi_device, the use count of the underlying LLDD module
is incremented. The module reference is retrieved through .module field of
struct scsi_host_template.
This mapping between scsi_device and underlying LLDD module works well
except ufs, unusual usb storage drivers, and sub drivers for esp_scsi.
These drivers consist with core driver and actual LLDDs, and
scsi_host_template is defined in the core driver. So the actual LLDDs can
be unloaded even if the scsi_device is being accessed.
This adds .module field in struct Scsi_Host and let the module reference
be retrieved though it instead of struct scsi_host_template. This allows
the actual LLDDs adjust module reference.
