sg: Fix double-free when drives detach during SG_IO

In sg_common_write(), we free the block request and return -ENODEV if
the device is detached in the middle of the SG_IO ioctl().

Unfortunately, sg_finish_rem_req() also tries to free srp->rq, so we
end up freeing rq->cmd in the already free rq object, and then free
the object itself out from under the current user.

This ends up corrupting random memory via the list_head on the rq
object. The most common crash trace I saw is this:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at block/blk-core.c:1420!

    RIP [<ffffffff81281e04>] __blk_put_request+0x154/0x1a0

The solution is straightforward: just set srp->rq to NULL in the
failure branch so that sg_finish_rem_req() doesn't attempt to re-free
it.

Additionally, since sg_rq_end_io() will never be called on the object
when this happens, we need to free memory backing ->cmd if it isn't
embedded in the object itself.

KASAN was extremely helpful in finding the root cause of this bug.
