Hello Martin,

The conclusion of a recent discussion about the handling of SCSI device VPD
data is that the code should be reworked such that that data is freed through
kfree_rcu() instead of kfree(). The two patches in this series realize this
and also simplify the VPD code somewhat. Please consider these patches for
kernel v4.14.

Thanks,

Bart.
