[PATCH 1/2] ibmvfc: fix potential race in ibmvfc_wait_for_ops

For various EH activities the ibmvfc driver uses ibmvfc_wait_for_ops()
to wait for the completion of commands that match a given criteria be it
cancel key, or specific LUN. With recent changes commands are completed
outside the lock in bulk by removing them from the sent list and adding
them to a private completion list. This introduces a potential race in
ibmvfc_wait_for_ops() since the criteria for a command to be oustsanding
is no longer simply being on the sent list, but instead not being on the
free list.

Avoid this race by scanning the entire command event pool and checking
that any matching command that ibmvfc needs to wait on is not already on
the free list.
