Subject[PATCH] scsi: lpfc: Fix lpfc_nodelist leak when processing unsolicited event
Date
In order to create or activate a new node, lpfc_els_unsol_buffer()
invokes lpfc_nlp_init() or lpfc_enable_node() or lpfc_nlp_get(), all of
them will return a reference of the specified lpfc_nodelist object to
"ndlp" with increased refcnt.

When lpfc_els_unsol_buffer() returns, local variable "ndlp" becomes
invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.

The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of
lpfc_els_unsol_buffer(). When "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS, the function forgets
to decrease the refcnt increased by lpfc_nlp_init() or
lpfc_enable_node() or lpfc_nlp_get(), causing a refcnt leak.

Fix this issue by calling lpfc_nlp_put() when "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS.
