Christof Schmitt cbf1ed0264 [SCSI] zfcp: Recover from stalled outbound queue
Depending on interruptions on some storage systems, the complete
channel can stall which looks like an outbound queue stall to Linux.
When trying to acquire a free SBAL for a non-SCSI command, zfcp waits
for 5 seconds for a free slot to appear. This is the right place to
detect a queue stall: If the wait times out, we assume a stalled queue
and try to recover this.

The overall strategy should be to trigger the erp from specific
events, and not try an overall escalation from one failed port to a
full-blown queue recovery. If we manage to send a command, the status
codes for this command or a timeout will trigger the right follow-on
actions.
