Commit cdb42becdd40 ("scsi: lpfc: Replace io_channels for nvme and fcp with
general hdw_queues per cpu") has introduced static checker warnings for
potential null dereferences in 'lpfc_sli4_hba_unset()' and commit 1ffdd2c0440d
("scsi: lpfc: resolve static checker warning in lpfc_sli4_hba_unset") has
tried to fix it.  However, yet another potential null dereference is
remaining.  This commit fixes it.

This bug was discovered and resolved using Coverity Static Analysis
Security Testing (SAST) by Synopsys, Inc.

	No, you do NOT need to "protect copy from user" that way.
Incidentally, your userland ABI stinks.  I understand that you
wanted to accept "reset" and "reset\n" as equivalent, but I suspect
that accepting "reset this, you !@^!@!" had been an accident.
Nothing to do about that now - it is a userland ABI...

<title>lpfc: fix axchg pointer reference after free and double frees</title>

<id>4e57e0b9f343fd14497ab04b2bc08c1784830b9d</id>
<content type='text'>
The axchg structure is a structure allocated early in the
lpfc_nvme_unsol_ls_handler() to represent the newly received exchange.
Upon error, the out_fail path in the routine unconditionally frees the
pointer, yet subsequently passes the pointer to the abort routine.
Additionally, the abort routine, lpfc_nvme_unsol_ls_issue_abort(), also
has a failure path that will attempt to delete the pointer on error.

Fix these errors by:
- Removing the unconditional free so that it stays valid if passed
  to the abort routine.
- Revise the abort routine to not free the pointer. Instead, return
  a success/failure status. Note: if success, the later completion of
  the abort frees the structure.
- Back in the unsol_ls_handler() error path, if the abort routine was
  skipped (thus no possible reference) or the abort routine returned
  error, free the pointer.

Additional testing encountered null pointers that weren't fully qualified

The same error was detected and reported by static checker reporting:

In order to create or activate a new node, lpfc_els_unsol_buffer() invokes
lpfc_nlp_init() or lpfc_enable_node() or lpfc_nlp_get(), all of them will
return a reference of the specified lpfc_nodelist object to "ndlp" with
increased refcnt.

When lpfc_els_unsol_buffer() returns, local variable "ndlp" becomes
invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.

The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of
lpfc_els_unsol_buffer(). When "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS, the function forgets to
decrease the refcnt increased by lpfc_nlp_init() or lpfc_enable_node() or
lpfc_nlp_get(), causing a refcnt leak.

Fix this issue by calling lpfc_nlp_put() when "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS.

The variable rc is being initialized with a value that is never read and it
is being updated later with a new value.  The initialization is redundant
and can be removed.

Now that common helpers exist, add the ability to Send an NVME LS Request
and to Abort an outstanding LS Request to the nvmet side of the driver.
