When a device is deleted through sysfs handle "delete", the code
locks shost->scan_mutex. If multiple devices are deleted at the
same time, these deletes will be handled in series.

On the other hand, sd_shutdown() sometimes issues long latency
commands: sync cache and start_stop. It is not necessary for these
commands to run in series.

To reduce latency of parallel "delete" requests, this patch unlock
shost->scan_mutex before long latency commands and relock the mutex
after the command.

Fixed bug from previous version.
