Subject: qla_target: don't delete changed nacls
From: Joern Engel <joern@xxxxxxxxx>
commit f4c24db1b7ad0ce84409e15744d26c6f86a96840 upstream.
The code is currently riddled with "drop the hardware_lock to avoid a
deadlock" bugs that expose races. One of those races seems to expose a
valid warning in tcm_qla2xxx_clear_nacl_from_fcport_map. Add some
bandaid to it.
