Bart Van Assche 255ee9320e scsi: Make __scsi_remove_device go straight from BLOCKED to DEL
If a device is blocked, make __scsi_remove_device() cause it to
transition to the DEL state. This means that all the commands issued in
.shutdown() will error in the mid-layer, thus making the removal proceed
without being stopped.

This patch is a slightly modified version of a patch from James
Bottomley. This patch avoids that the following lockup occurs:

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
