scsi_device's refcount is always grabbed in IO path. Turns out it isn't necessary, because blk_queue_cleanup() will drain any in-flight IOs, then cancel timeout/requeue work, and SCSI's requeue_work is canceled too in __scsi_remove_device(). Also scsi_device won't go away until blk_cleanup_queue() is done. So don't hold the refcount in IO path, especially the refcount isn't required in IO path since blk_queue_enter() / blk_queue_exit() is introduced in the legacy block layer.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
