Subject: [PATCH 5/5] ibmvfc: relax locking around ibmvfc_queuecommand

The drivers queuecommand routine is still wrapped to hold the host lock
for the duration of the call. This will become problematic when moving
to multiple queues due to the lock contention preventing asynchronous
submissions to mulitple queues. There is no real legatimate reason to
hold the host lock, and previous patches have insured proper protection
of moving ibmvfc_event objects between free and sent lists.
