Subject: scsi: qla2xxx: Replace fcport alloc with qla2x00_alloc_fcport
From: Quinn Tran <quinn.tran@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 063b36d6b0ad74c748d536f5cb47bac2f850a0fa upstream.
Current code manually allocate an fcport structure that is not properly
initialize. Replace kzalloc with qla2x00_alloc_fcport, so that all
fields are initialized. Also set set scan flag to port found
