commit 986fe6c7f50974e871b8ab5a800f5310ea25b361 upstream.

Deleting a SCSI device on a blocked fc_remote_port (before
fast_io_fail_tmo fires) results in a hanging thread:

17 kthread+160 [0x1680b0]
18 kernel_thread_starter+6 [0x10aaea]

During the delete, the SCSI device is in moved to SDEV_CANCEL. When
the FC transport class later calls scsi_target_unblock, this has no
effect, since scsi_internal_device_unblock ignores SCSI devics in this
state.

It looks like all these are regressions caused by:

[SCSI] limit state transitions in scsi_internal_device_unblock

Fix by rejecting offline and cancel in the state transition.
