s390/dasd: Fix inconsistent kobject removal
Our intention was to only remove path kobjects whenever a device is being set offline. However, one corner case was missing. If a device is disabled and enabled (using the IOCTLs BIODASDDISABLE and BIODASDENABLE respectively), the enabling process will call dasd_eckd_reload_device() which itself calls dasd_eckd_read_conf() in order to update path information. During that update, dasd_eckd_clear_conf_data() clears all old data and also removes all kobjects. This will leave us with an inconsistent state of path kobjects and a subsequent path verification leads to a failing kobject creation. Fix this by removing kobjects only in the context of offlining a device as initially intended.
