James Smart 2693f5deed scsi: lpfc: Fix stale node accesses on stale RRQ request
Whenever an RRQ needs to be triggered, the DID from the node structure and
node pointer are stored in the RRQ data structure and the RRQ is scheduled
for later transmission. However, at the point in time that the timer
triggers, there's no validation on the node pointer. Reference counters may
have freed the structure. Additionally the DID in the node may no longer be
valid.

Fix by not tracking the node pointer in the RRQ, only the DID. At the time
of the timer expiration, look up the node with the did and if present, send
the RRQ. If no node exists, no need to send the RRQ.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
