          scsi: use class iteration api
      
      Isn't a correct replacement for the original hand rolled host
      lookup. The problem is that class_find_child would get a reference to
      the host's class device which is never released.  Since the host class
      device holds a reference to the host gendev, the host can never be
      freed.
      
      In 2.6.26 we started using class_find_device, and this function also
      gets a reference to the device, so we end up with an extra ref
      and the host will not get released.
      
      This patch adds a put_device to balance the class_find_device() get. I
      kept the scsi_host_get in scsi_host_lookup, because the target layer
      is using scsi_host_lookup and it looks like it needs the SHOST_DEL
      check.
