Dick Kennedy 1234a6d54f scsi: lpfc: Fix crash receiving ELS while detaching driver
The driver crashes when attempting to use a freed ndpl pointer.

The pci_remove_one handler runs on a separate kernel thread. The order
of the removal is starting by freeing all of the ndlps and then
disabling interrupts. In between these two events the driver can still
receive an ELS and process it. When it tries to use the ndlp pointer
will be NULL

Change the order of the pci_remove_one vs disable interrupts so that
interrupts are disabled before the ndlp's are freed.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
