If a host template doesn't implement the .eh_abort_handler()
there is no point in queueing the abort workqueue function;
all it does is invoking SCSI EH anyway.
So return 'FAILED' from scsi_abort_command() if the .eh_abort_handler()
is not implemented and save us from having to wait for the
abort workqueue function to complete.

Changes since v1:
-moved the check to the top of scsi_abort_command(), as there is no need to
perform the SCSI_EH_ABORT_SCHEDULED check if there is no eh_abort_handler.
I know that John gave a review comment on V1 that it is possible to not
allocate the shost->tmf_work_q in case there is no eh_abort_handler,
however, that is more of a micro optimization.
I'd say that would be a separate change.
This patch significantly
reduces the latency before SCSI EH is invoked for libata.
It would be nice if we could get this patched merged for 6.2, for which
the merge window opens soon.
