scsi: sd: Rely on the driver core for asynchronous probing
As explained during the 2018 LSF/MM session about increasing SCSI disk probing concurrency, the problems with the current probing approach are as follows: - The driver core is unaware of asynchronous SCSI LUN probing. wait_for_device_probe() waits for all asynchronous probes except asynchronous SCSI disk probes. - There is unnecessary serialization between sd_probe() and sd_remove(). This can lead to a deadlock. Hence this patch that modifies the sd driver such that it uses the driver core framework for asynchronous probing. The async domain and get_device()/put_device() pairs that became superfluous due to this change are removed. This patch does not affect the time needed for loading the scsi_debug kernel module with parameters delay=0 and max_luns=256. This patch depends on commit ef0ff68351be ("driver core: Probe devices asynchronously instead of the driver") that went upstream in kernel version v5.1-rc1.
