scsi: qla2xxx: Ignore PORT UPDATE after N2N PLOGI
[ Upstream commit af22f0c7b052c5c203207f1e5ebd6aa65f87c538 ]
PORT UPDATE asynchronous event is generated on the host that issues PLOGI
ELS (in the case of higher WWPN). In that case, the event shouldn't be
handled as it sets unwanted DPC flags (i.e. LOOP_RESYNC_NEEDED) that
trigger link flap.
Ignore the event if the host has higher WWPN, but handle otherwise.
