      [SCSI] scsi_transport_fc: Fix synchronization issue while deleting vport · 0d9dc7c8
      Gal Rosen authored
      The issue occur while deleting 60 virtual ports through the sys
      interface /sys/class/fc_vports/vport-X/vport_delete. It happen while in
      a mistake each request sent twice for the same vport. This interface is
      asynchronous, entering the delete request into a work queue, allowing
      more than one request to enter to the delete work queue. The result is a
      NULL pointer. The first request already delete the vport, while the
      second request got a pointer to the vport before the device destroyed.
      Re-create vport later cause system freeze.
      
      Solution: Check vport flags before entering the request to the work queue.
