[PATCH] scsi: remove meaningless scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout field

scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout doesn't serve any purpose
anymore.  All serial_number == serial_number_at_timeout tests
are always true in abort callbacks.  Kill the field.  Also, as
->pid always equals ->serial_number and ->serial_number
doesn't have any special meaning anymore, update comments
above ->serial_number accordingly.  Once we remove all uses of
this field from all lldd's, this field should go.
