Although most calls of scsi_device_put() happen from non-atomic context,
alua_rtpg_queue() calls this function from atomic context if
alua_rtpg_queue() itself is called from atomic context. alua_rtpg_queue()
is always called from contexts where the caller must hold at least one
reference to the scsi device in question. This means that the reference
taken by alua_rtpg_queue() itself can't be the last one, and thus can be
dropped without entering the code path in which scsi_device_put() might
actually sleep. Hence move the might_sleep() annotation from
scsi_device_put() into scsi_device_dev_release().
