Subject: scsi: lpfc: Fix NULL ptr dereference with NPIV ports for RDF handling
Patch-mainline: v5.15-rc1
Git-commit: 2d338eb55b14ab9d245e8b1d982adecca8c4c613
References: bsc#1189385
RDF ELS handling for NPIV ports may result in an incorrect NDLP reference
count. In the event of a persistent link down, this may lead to premature
release of an NDLP structure and subsequent NULL ptr dereference panic.
Remove extraneous lpfc_nlp_put() call in NPIV port RDF processing.
