Subject: qla2xxx: Remove msleep in qlt_send_term_exchange

From: Himanshu Madhani <[email protected]>

commit 6bc85dd595a5438b50ec085668e53ef26058bb90 upstream.

Remove unnecessary msleep from qlt_send_term_exchange as it adds latency of 250 msec while sending terminate exchange to an aborted task.
