[SCSI] don't reference freed command in scsi_init_sgtable
Patch commit 0479633686d370303e3430256ace4bd5f7f138dc Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Date: Thu Feb 20 14:20:55 2014 -0800 [SCSI] do not manipulate device reference counts in scsi_get/put_command Introduced a use after free: when scsi_init_io fails we have to release our device reference, but we do this trying to reference the just freed command. Add a local scsi_device pointer to fix this.
