When NPIV ports are zoned to devices that support both initiator and target
mode, a remote device's initiated PRLI results in unintended final kref
clean up of the device's ndlp structure. This disrupts NPIV ports'
discovery for target devices that support both initiator and target mode.
Modify the NPIV lpfc_drop_node clause such that we allow the ndlp to live
so long as it was in NLP_STE_PLOGI_ISSUE, NLP_STE_REG_LOGIN_ISSUE, or
NLP_STE_PRLI_ISSUE nlp_state. This allows lpfc's issued PRLI completion
routine to determine if the final kref clean up should execute rather than
a remote device's issued PRLI.
