[PATCH 4.4 01/19] scsi: core: Put LLD module refcnt after SCSI device is released

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Nov 10 2021 - 13:43:41 EST


From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f2b85040acec9a928b4eb1b57a989324e8e38d3f upstream.

SCSI host release is triggered when SCSI device is freed. We have to make
sure that the low-level device driver module won't be unloaded before SCSI
host instance is released because shost->hostt is required in the release
handler.

Make sure to put LLD module refcnt after SCSI device is released.

Fixes a kernel panic of 'BUG: unable to handle page fault for address'
reported by Changhui and Yi.
