[SCSI] sg: Free data buffers after calling blk_rq_unmap_user

Running sg_luns on s390x with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enabled fails
with EFAULT from the SG_IO ioctl. The EFAULT is the result from
copy_to_user failing in this call chain:

sg_ioctl
sg_new_read
sg_finish_rem_req
blk_rq_unmap_user
__blk_rq_unmap_user
bio_uncopy_user
__bio_copy_iov
copy_to_user

The sg driver calls sg_remove_scat to free the memory pages before
calling blk_rq_unmap_user that tries to copy the data back to
userspace. Change the order to first call blk_rq_unmap_user before
freeing the pages in sg_remove_scat.
