Ah. Umm.

Yes, you are right...

Hmm. Okay. But then we should _not_ be checking if the host is in
recovery when sending aborts, but rather trying to do an abort anyway.
We only need to terminate/not send aborts if eh_deadline has triggered,
as then we're doing a host reset and aborts are meaningless anyway.

Will be updating the patchset.

Hannes
