scsi: qla2xxx: Fix unintialized List head crash



In case of IOCB Queue full or system where memory is low and driver
receives large number of RSCN storm, the stale sp pointer can stay on
gpnid_list resulting in page_fault.

This patch fixes this issue by initializing the sp->elem list head and
removing sp->elem before memory is freed.

Following stack trace is seen
