[SCSI] remove a timer race in scsi_queue_insert()



scsi_queue_insert() has four callers.  Three callers call with
timer disabled and one (the second invocation in
scsi_dispatch_cmd()) calls with timer activated.
scsi_queue_insert() used to always call scsi_delete_timer()
and ignore the return value.  This results in race with timer
expiration.  Remove scsi_delete_timer() call from
scsi_queue_insert() and make the caller delete timer and check
the return value.
