ata fixes for 7.0-rc2

- The newly introduced feature that issues a deferred (non-NCQ) command
    from a workqueue, forgot to consider the case where the deferred QC
    times out. Fix the code to take timeouts into consideration, which
    avoids a use after free (Damien)
 
  - The newly introduced feature that issues a deferred (non-NCQ) command
    from a workqueue, when unloading the module, calls cancel_work_sync(),
    a function that can sleep, while holding a spin lock. Move the function
    call outside the lock (Damien)
