xen/blkfront: fix warning when deleting gendisk on unplug/shutdown
Currently blkfront gives a warning when hot unplugging due to calling
del_gendisk() with interrupts disabled (due to blkif_io_lock).

We can fix this by calling del_gendisk() later in blkfront_closing, after
releasing blkif_io_lock. Since the queue is stopped during the interrupts
disabled phase I don't think there is any danger of an event occuring between
releasing the blkif_io_lock and deleting the disk.
