SCSI: fix race in device_create
There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and
then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a
sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all
sorts of bad things to happen.
This patch fixes the problem by using the new function,
device_create_drvdata(). It fixes the problem in all of the scsi
drivers that need it.

The problem is ch_probe stores ch's private data at a wrong place.
We need to store it at scsi_device->sdev_gendev but the above patch
stores it at device struct that device_create_drvdata returns. So we
hit an oops when ch_remove accesses
scsi_device->sdev_gendev->driver_data, which is NULL.
Actually, there wasn't a race because ch doesn't create sysfs files
with device struct that device_create returns. This patch puts back
dev_set_drvdata() to set ch's private data properly.
