If request_atomic() can return 'busy', the HSQ need queue a work to
dispatch this request to host again?

I am thinking if I can introduce a new flag to avoid polling the
status before sending commands, cause from the datasheet, I did not
see we should need do this if the command complete and transfer
complete interrupts are processed normally. At least on my platfrom, I
did not see the inhibit bits are set. If we meet this issue, I think
some abormal things are happened, we should give out errors. How do
you think?
