[PATCH] virtio_scsi: don't call virtqueue_add_sgs(... GFP_NOIO) holding spinlock.

[Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This triggers every time we do a SCSI abort:

virtscsi_tmf -> virtscsi_kick_cmd (grab lock and call) -> virtscsi_add_cmd
	-> virtqueue_add_sgs (GFP_NOIO)

Logs look like this:
