Theoretically, this case is already accounted for - 
See line 6407: a proper error is issued and eventually outstanding req is cleared.

Can you go over the scenario you are attending line by line,
And explain why ufshcd_abort does not account for it?

What do you mean? Why checking the outstanding reqs isn't enough?

But you've arrived here only if (!(test_bit(tag, &hba->outstanding_reqs))) - 
See line 6400.
