This patch started life as as534, and has been re-diffed against the latest tree.
usb-storage has a small loophole, a window between the time queuecommand accepts a new command and the time the control thread starts to execute it. If disconnect is called during that window, the driver won't cancel the pending command -- we've been relying on the SCSI core to cancel it for us during host removal. But it's better for usb-storage to cancel it; this avoids races and reduces reliance on the SCSI core. Fortunately cancelling these commands is easy to do; the key is to do it _before_ calling scsi_remove_host. Greg, please apply.
