[SCSI] sym53c8xx_2: slave_alloc/destroy safety (2.6.27.5)
Make the sym53c8xx_2 driver slave_alloc/destroy less unsafe. References
to the destroyed LCB are cleared from the target structure (instead of
leaving a dangling pointer), and when the last LCB for the target is
destroyed the reference to the upper layer target data is cleared. The
host lock is used to prevent a race with the interrupt handler. Also
user commands are prevented for targets with all LCBs destroyed.
