That seems like a bit of a mixup, what ties a stopped queue to recovery?
To take one example, the cciss driver stops the queue when it can't
queue more at the hw level and starts it on completion to queue more. If
recovery triggers when the hw queue has been filled, then timeouts will
fail?

It would be better to mark the queue as already doing abort. That state
could be in the queue, or it could be at the driver level.
