4443 /* If the node is not being used by another discovery thread,
4444 * and we are sending a reject, we are done with it.
Fix by adding a check for non-null shost in line 4438.
The scenario when shost is set to null is when ndlp is null.
As such, the ndlp check present was sufficient. But better safe
than sorry so add the shost check.
