Mike Christie eb1b291466 vhost-scsi: Drop device mutex use in vhost_scsi_do_plug
We don't need the device mutex in vhost_scsi_do_plug because:
1. we have the vhost_scsi_mutex so the tpg->vhost_scsi pointer will not
change on us and the vhost_scsi can't be freed from under us if it was
set.
2. vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint will stop the virtqueues and flush them while
holding the vhost_scsi_mutex so we know once vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint
has completed that vhost_scsi_do_plug can't send new events and any
queued ones have completed.

So this patch drops the device mutex use in vhost_scsi_do_plug.

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.
