sbp2: fix another deadlock after disconnection

If there were commands enqueued but not completed before an SBP-2 unit
was unplugged (or an attempt to reconnect failed), knodemgrd or any
process which tried to remove the device would sleep uninterruptibly
in blk_execute_rq(). Therefore make sure that all commands are
completed when sbp2 retreats.
