Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 13/63] scsi: lpfc: Fix "Unexpected timeout" error in direct attach topology

From: James Smart <jsmart2021@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit e30d55137edef47434c40d7570276a0846fe922c ]

An 'unexpected timeout' message may be seen in a point-2-point topology.
The message occurs when a PLOGI is received before the driver is notified
of FLOGI completion. The FLOGI completion failure causes discovery to be
triggered for a second time. The discovery timer is restarted but no new
discovery activity is initiated, thus the timeout message eventually
appears.

In point-2-point, when discovery has progressed before the FLOGI completion
is processed, it is not a failure. Add code to FLOGI completion to detect
that discovery has progressed and exit the FLOGI handling (noop'ing it).
