When trying to remove a megaraid_sas device, the scst will hang inside

The problem is that scst_free_device will call flush_scheduled_work to wait
for ext_blockers_work, but scst_free_device itself is called from
schedule_work, thus creating deadlock.

Instead of using heavy-handed flush_scheduled_work, we use flush_work to wait
for ext_blockers_work to finish.
