    scsi: qla2xxx: Fix NULL pointer crash due to active timer for ABTS · 8bf4bc93

    commit 1514839b upstream.
    
    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.

    Looking at the assembly of get_next_timer_interrupt(), address came
    from %r8 (ffff95e1f6451188) which is pointing to list_head with single
    entry at ffff95e5ff621178.
