    [SCSI] qla2xxx: Handle outstanding mbx cmds on hung f/w scenarios. · cdbb0a4f

    Outstanding mailbox commands, have no way to recover on f/w hung, and we
    timeout on waiting for mbx response. This in turn affects the recovery process
    as follows:
    - We might already be in dpc while waiting for mbx to complete, so recovery for
    that pci function will never get invoked. Reset Timeout (10 sec) is far less
    than mbx timeout (30 sec).
    - Other mbx cmds will get stuck due to serial mbx access.
    
    Solution is to identify fw-hung scenario and handle outstanding mbx commands to
    have an early-exit instead of waiting for response.
    Other mbx commands waiting for access will also do an early-exit if fw-hung is
    still applicable.
