Before, DMAs would never be cancelled if there was a data stall
or an EEH Permenant failure which would cause an unrecoverable
I/O hang.
The DMA cancellation mechanism has been modified to fix
these issues and allows DMAs to be cancelled during the
above mentioned events.

if too many are issued at once.

Commit d8d595df introduced a bug where we did not check for a NULL
return from kmalloc(). Make rsxx_eeh_save_issued_dmas() return an
error for that case, and make the callers handle that.
