The issue is that the per-device running_req read in
pm8001_dev_gone_notify() never goes to zero and we never make progress.
This is caused by missing accounting for running_req for when an internal
abort command completes.
In commit 2cbbf489778e ("scsi: pm8001: Use libsas internal abort support")
we started to send internal abort commands as a proper sas_task. In this
when we deliver a sas_tas
