From: Quinn Tran <quinn.tran@xxxxxxxxxx>
Original code acquires hardware_lock to add Abort IOCB
onto driver's request queue for processing. However,
abort_command() will also acquire hardware lock to look up
sp pointer before issuing abort IOCB command resulting
into a deadlock. This patch safely removes the possible
deadlock scenario by removing extra spinlock.
Fixes: 6eb54715b54bb ("qla2xxx: Added interface to send explicit LOGO.")
