No patch attached.  Nevermind this is not a consdervative fix, but a
band aid.  The proper fix is to figure out what's actually going on
here.

I've looked at the virtio-scsi code a bit, and one odd thing it does
that comes in handy here is that it doesn't really use a traditional
tag, but rather the address of the scsi command.

Knowning that your above traces mean that we are resending a command
to the HBA/storage that has a pending abort going on.
