I would have fixed this by moving the label to be after the qla2x00_free_fcport()
call in qla2x00_configure_local_loop(), which Coverity complained about.  And
called it something different.  (The code could probably be simplified by only
making a call to qla2x00_alloc_fcport() in one place, something to think about...)

I also notice that there is duplicate code in qla2x00_alloc_fcport() that tests for:

        if (!fcport->ct_desc.ct_sns)

But, this should fix the Coverity issue.
