[SCSI] Fix leak of Scsi_Cmnds
When a request is deferred in scsi_init_io because the sg table could not be allocated, the associated scsi_cmnd is not released and the request is not marked with REQ_DONTPREP. When the command is retried, if scsi_prep_fn decides to kill it then the scsi_cmnd will never be released. This patch (as573) changes scsi_init_io so that it calls scsi_put_command before deferring a request.
