Subject: [PATCH 2/2] 3.7.y target: Move dev->dev_link_magic check

Commit fdf9d862969f1be18814273b03fb9497ec2dbdae (target: Add link_magic
for fabric allow_link destination target_items) applied without commit
0fd97ccf45be26fb01b3a412f1f6c6b5044b2f16 (Simplify the code a lot by
killing the superflous struct se_subsystem_dev) has the
dev->dev_link_magic check before dev is initialized in
target_fabric_port_link.  This patch moves the dev->dev_link_magic
check to after dev is initialized.
