The lldd rebinds the ndlp with rport during a nvme rport registration (va nvme_fc_register_remoteport). If rport & ndlp pointers are same as the previous one, the lldd will re-use the ndlp and rport association without re-iniitalization. This assumption is incorrect. The lldd should be ignorant of whether the returned rport pointer is new or not, and should always assume it is new. Remove the re-binding code, always assumes that rport pointer received from transport is a new pointer.
