Subject: qla2xxx: Fix hardware lock/unlock issue causing kernel panic.

From: Saurav Kashyap <[email protected]>

commit ba9f6f64a0ff6b7ecaed72144c179061f8eca378 upstream.

[ Upstream commit ef86cb2059a14b4024c7320999ee58e938873032 ]

This patch fixes a kernel panic for qla2xxx Target core Module driver introduced by a fix in the qla2xxx initiator code.

Commit ef86cb2 ("qla2xxx: Mark port lost when we receive an RSCN for it.") introduced the regression for qla2xxx Target driver.
