isci: replace isci_timer list with proper embedded timers
Rather than preallocating a list of timers and doling them out at runtime,
embed a struct timerlist in each object that needs one. A struct sci_timer
interface is introduced to manage the timer cancellation semantics which
currently need to guarantee the timer is cancelled while holding
spin_lock(ihost->scic_lock). Since the timeout functions also need to acquire
the lock it currently prevents the driver from using del_timer_sync() for
runtime cancellations.
del_timer_sync() is used however before the objects go out of scope.
