[ Upstream commit 6c1e803eac846f886cd35131e6516fc51a8414b9 ] When reading sysfs nvme_info file while a remote port leaves and comes back, a NULL pointer is encountered. The issue is due to ndlp list corruption as the the nvme_info_show does not use the same lock as the rest of the code. Correct by removing the rcu_xxx_lock calls and replace by the host_lock and phba->hbaLock spinlocks that are used by the rest of the driver. Given we're called from sysfs, we are safe to use _irq rather than _irqsave.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
