Subject: CVE-2024-49852: scsi: elx: libefc: Fix potential use after free in efc_nport_vport_del()

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: elx: libefc: Fix potential use after free in efc_nport_vport_del()

The kref_put() function will call nport->release if the refcount drops to
zero.  The nport->release release function is _efc_nport_free() which frees
"nport".  But then we dereference "nport" on the next line which is a use
after free.  Re-order these lines to avoid the use after free.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-49852 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
