In ufshcd_remove(), after SCSI host is removed, put it once so that its resources

This is not really part of this patchset, is it?


Hi Avri,

I put this change in the same patchset due to
#1. The main patch has dependency on it
#2. Consider a scenario where platform driver is also compiled as a module, say ufs_qcom.ko.
In this case, we have two modules, ufs-qcom.ko and ufs-bsg.ko. If do insmod ufs-qcom.ko
then rmmod ufs-qcom.ko and do insmod ufs-qcom.ko again, without this change, because scsi
host was not release, the new scsi host will have a different host number, meaning
hba->host->host_no will be 1, but not 0. Now if do insmod ufs-bsg.ko now, the ufs-bsg dev
created in /dev/bsg/ will be ufs-bsg1, but not ufs-bsg0. If keep trying these operations,
the ufs-bsg device's name will be messed up. This change make sure after ufs-qcom.ko is removed
and installed back, its hba->host->host_no stays 0, so that ufs-bsg device name stays same.

Thanks,

Can Guo.
