scsi_device_lookup() returns a scsi_device with an extra reference
that the caller has to drop with scsi_device_put(). The physical device
event handler never releases it, so the scsi_device reference is leaked
for every physical device event reported by the controller.
Drop the reference after the device state has been updated.
