Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Check for hdwq null ptr when cleaning up lpfc_vport structure
If a call to lpfc_sli4_read_rev() from lpfc_sli4_hba_setup() fails, the
resultant cleanup routine lpfc_sli4_vport_delete_fcp_xri_aborted() may
occur before sli4_hba.hdwqs are allocated. This may result in a null
pointer dereference when attempting to take the abts_io_buf_list_lock for
the first hardware queue. Fix by adding a null ptr check on
phba->sli4_hba.hdwq and early return because this situation means there
must have been an error during port initialization.
