This incorrectly treats it as not-mediated recovery when the queue runs
full and zpci_store_pci_error() returns -ENOMEM (Sashiko also noticed
this though the explanation is a bit hard to read).

The unlock here seems like a bad leftover from the previous code.
You're not holding that lock here. (Also found by Sashiko).
