The command completion was done early while aborting the commands in driver
unload path but outside lock to avoid the WARN_ON condition of performing
dma_free_attr within the lock. However this caused race condition while
command completion via multiple paths causing system crash.

Hence complete the command early in unload path but within the lock to
avoid race condition.
