3.19.8-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche at sandisk.com>

commit bc44bd1d864664f3658352c6aaaa02557d49165d upstream.

scsi_host_alloc() not only allocates memory for a SCSI host but also
creates the scsi_eh_<n> kernel thread and the scsi_tmf_<n> workqueue.
Stop these threads if login fails by calling scsi_host_put().

Reported-by: Konstantin Krotov <kkv at clodo.ru>
Fixes: fb49c8bbaae7 ("Remove an extraneous scsi_host_put() from an error path")
