s390/cio: fix use after free in cmb processing

Devices with active channel measurement are included in a list. When a
device is removed without deactivating channel measurement first the
list_head is freed but still used. Fix this by making sure that
channel measurement is deactivated during device deregistration.

For devices that we deregister because they are no longer accessible
deactivating channel measurement will fail. In this case we can report
success because the FW will no longer access the measurement block.

In addition to these steps keep an extra device reference while
channel measurement is active.
