himanshu.madhani@cavium.com 1514839b36 scsi: qla2xxx: Fix NULL pointer crash due to active timer for ABTS
This patch fixes NULL pointer crash due to active timer running for abort
IOCB.

From crash dump analysis it was discoverd that get_next_timer_interrupt()
encountered a corrupted entry on the timer list.

The object is a srb_t, and at offset 0xf8 within that structure
(i.e. ffff95e5ff621080 + f8 -> ffff95e5ff621178) is a struct timer_list.
