[PATCH] abstract out more scsi_device acess out of the low-level drivers
Two new helpers: scsi_device_get and scsi_device_put that get/release a reference to the underlying HBA driver and increment/decrement ->access_count. Cleanup ->attach/->detach routines in the upper layer drivers a bit to consolidate the error pathes once we're cleaning them up. ->attach and ->detach in upper layer drivers are mandatory now (not having them would be rather pointless). (note that the sd.c changes are not in this patch, it'll be part of my next, bigger patch)
