[SCSI] fix race in scsi_target_reap

Browse Source 
This patch (as1357) fixes a race in SCSI target allocation and
release.  Putting a target in the STARGET_DEL state isn't protected by
the host lock, so an old target structure could be reused by a new
device even though it's about to be deleted.  The cure is to change
the state while still holding the host lock.
