As long as we cannot easily abort IDE request (correct me if I am wrong) the workaround seems to be to mark current request as aborted in idescsi_abort and ignore it later in idescsi_end_request, i.e. something like (with new flag PC_ABORTED)

struct request *rq = HWGROUP(idescsi_drives[cmd->target])->rq;
idescsi_pc_t *pc = (idescsi_pc_t *) rq->buffer;
pc->flags |= PC_ABORTED;

and later on assume we can ignore SCSI layer completely in this case in idescsi_end_request, just do general cleanup.

If you can reliably reproduce the problem you could give it a try.

Anybody sees yet another race condition here? :))
