zfcp_qdio_send() and zfcp_qdio_int_req() run concurrently, adding and completing SBALs on the Request Queue. There's a theoretical race where zfcp_qdio_int_req() completes a number of SBALs & increments the queue's free-level _before_ zfcp_qdio_send() was able to decrement it. This can cause ->req_q_free to momentarily hold a value larger than QDIO_MAX_BUFFERS_PER_Q. Luckily zfcp_qdio_send() is always called under ->req_q_lock, and all readers of the free-level also take this lock. So we can trust that zfcp_qdio_send() will clean up such a temporary overflow before anyone can actually observe it. But it's still confusing and annoying to worry about. So adjust the code to avoid this race.
