Christof Schmitt d74cf7c3e9 [SCSI] zfcp: Fix hang when offlining device with offline chpid
Running chchp --vary 0 and chccwdev -d on a FCP device with scsi
devices attached can lead to this thread hanging:

================================================================

The problem is that the chchp --vary 0 leads to zfcp first calling
fc_remote_port_delete which blocks all scsi devices on the remote
port. Calling scsi_remove_device later lets the sd driver issue a
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE command. This command stays on the "stopped" request
requeue because the SCSI device is blocked. Fix this by first removing
the scsi and fc hosts which removes all scsi devices and do not use
scsi_remove_device.
