[SCSI] target: fix use after free detected by SLUB poison

This patch moves a large number of memory release paths inside of the
configfs callback target_core_hba_item_ops->release() called from
within fs/configfs/item.c: config_item_cleanup() context.  This patch
resolves the SLUB 'Poison overwritten' warnings.
