The QEMU emulation which is currently used with Raspberry PI images
(qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb ...) accesses memory which was freed.

Valgrind output (extract):

(There are some more similar messages.)

This patch adds an assertion which also detects those errors:

Calling scsi_req_unref is not allowed when the previous call
of that function has decremented refcount to 0, because in this
case req was freed.
