Subject: mpt3sas: Don't overreach ioc->reply_post[] during initialization

From: Calvin Owens <[email protected]>

commit 5ec8a1753bc29efa7e4b1391d691c9c719b30257 upstream.

In _base_make_ioc_operational(), we walk ioc->reply_queue_list and pull a pointer out of successive elements of ioc->reply_post[] for each entry in that list if RDPQ is enabled.

Since the code pulls the pointer for the next iteration at the bottom of the loop, it triggers the a KASAN dump on the final iteration:

Fix this by pulling the value at the beginning of the loop.
