scsi: lpfc: Fix lpfc_nodelist leak when processing unsolicited event
[ Upstream commit 7217e6e694da3aae6d17db8a7f7460c8d4817ebf ] In order to create or activate a new node, lpfc_els_unsol_buffer() invokes lpfc_nlp_init() or lpfc_enable_node() or lpfc_nlp_get(), all of them will return a reference of the specified lpfc_nodelist object to "ndlp" with increased refcnt. When lpfc_els_unsol_buffer() returns, local variable "ndlp" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of lpfc_els_unsol_buffer(). When "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS, the function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by lpfc_nlp_init() or lpfc_enable_node() or lpfc_nlp_get(), causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling lpfc_nlp_put() when "ndlp" in DEV_LOSS.
