[SCSI] scsi_transport_fc: Fix synchronization issue while deleting vport
The issue occur while deleting 60 virtual ports through the sys interface /sys/class/fc_vports/vport-X/vport_delete. It happen while in a mistake each request sent twice for the same vport. This interface is asynchronous, entering the delete request into a work queue, allowing more than one request to enter to the delete work queue. The result is a NULL pointer. The first request already delete the vport, while the second request got a pointer to the vport before the device destroyed. Re-create vport later cause system freeze. Solution: Check vport flags before entering the request to the work queue.
