[PATCH] scsi: lpfc: Fix a possible data race in lpfc_unregister_fcf_rescan()

From: Tuo Li
Date: Thu Jun 29 2023 - 22:48:12 EST


The variable phba->fcf.fcf_flag is often protected by the lock
phba->hbalock() when is accessed. Here is an example in
lpfc_unregister_fcf_rescan():

spin_lock_irq(&phba->hbalock);
phba->fcf.fcf_flag |= FCF_INIT_DISC;
spin_unlock_irq(&phba->hbalock);

However, in the same function, phba->fcf.fcf_flag is assigned with 0
without holding the lock, and thus can cause a data race:

phba->fcf.fcf_flag = 0;

To fix this possible data race, a lock and unlock pair is added when
accessing the variable phba->fcf.fcf_flag.
