sg_remove_sfp_usercontext() must not use sg_device_destroy() after calling scsi_device_put().
sg_device_destroy() is accessling the device queue. Which will be set to NULL if scsi_device_put() removes the last reference to the sg device.

This is my best shot for a real fix of the issue. I confirmed with printk's that I get the NULL pointer freeze ony when scsi_device_put() is deleting the last reference to the device. In the cases where it's not crashing there is still a reference left after the call.
I don't see any obvious down side of simply swapping the calls. The alternative would by my first patch, just without the WARN_ON.
