2.6.26-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> commit 3f27e3ed11e67c5ee19d560a50eafd93cf8c6682 upstream [SCSI] bsg: fix bsg_mutex hang with device removal We don't need to hold bsg_mutex during bsg_complete_all_commands(). It leads to a problem that we block bsg_unregister_queue during bsg_complete_all_commands (untill all the outstanding commands complete). Thanks to Pete Wyckoff for finding the bug and testing the patch.
