Subject: [ 76/89] target: fix regression with dev_link_magic in target_fabric_port_link

3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@...ux-iscsi.org>

This is to fix a regression that only affect the stable (not for the mainline)
that the stable commit fdf9d86 was incorrectly placed dev->dev_link_magic check
before the *dev assignment in target_fabric_port_link() due to fuzzy automatically
context adjustment during the back-porting.
