2.6.35-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com>
commit d862b13bc8cbab9692fbe0ef44c40d0488b81af1 upstream.
mspro_block_remove() is called from detect thread that first calls the
mspro_block_stop(), which stops the request queue. If we call
del_gendisk() with the queue stopped we get a deadlock.
