Bug description:
  Description:  qdio: reset old sbal_state flags

  Symptom:      af_iucv socket using HiperSockets may stall.

  Problem:      When allocating a new AOB fails, handle_outbound() is
                still capable of transmitting the selected buffer
                (just without async completion).
                But if a previous transfer on this queue slot used
                async completion, its sbal_state flags field is still set
                to QDIO_OUTBUF_STATE_FLAG_PENDING.
                So when the upper layer driver sees this stale flag, it
                expects an async completion that never happens.

  Solution:     Unconditionally clear the buffer's flags field.

  Reproduction: Error inject, simulating out-of-memory.

  kernel 4.20
