Subject: [PATCH 3.12 111/206] qla_target: don't delete changed nacls

From: Joern Engel <joern@...fs.org>

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

===============

commit f4c24db1b7ad0ce84409e15744d26c6f86a96840 upstream.

The code is currently riddled with "drop the hardware_lock to avoid a
deadlock" bugs that expose races.  One of those races seems to expose a
valid warning in tcm_qla2xxx_clear_nacl_from_fcport_map.  Add some
bandaid to it.
