I don't think this test is correct. Did you want all ||s?

For what the patch is trying to accomplish I'm not sure if it's
the behavior people wanted. Do all drivers have configurable
abort timeouts? If an abort takes N minutes to complete ok,
and that's put us over the eh deadline maybe the user wanted
that device to be offlined.
