libfc: Fix a race in fc_exch_timer_set_locked()
It is allowed to pass a zero timeout value to fc_seq_exch_abort(). Avoid that this can cause the timeout function to drop the exchange reference before it has been increased by fc_exch_timer_set_locked(). This patch fixes a crash when running FCoE target code with poisoning enabled in the memory allocator.
