[PATCH v2] qla2xxx: Avoid that issuing a LIP triggers a kernel crash

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

Avoid that issuing a LIP as follows:

  find /sys -name 'issue_lip'|while read f; do echo 1 > $f; done

triggers the following:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
Call Trace:
 qla2x00_abort_all_cmds+0xed/0x140 [qla2xxx]
 qla2x00_abort_isp_cleanup+0x1e3/0x280 [qla2xxx]

 qla2x00_do_dpc+0x36c/0x880 [qla2xxx]
 kthread+0x10c/0x140

Note: this patch is a slight change of the original patch
      sent by Bart, submitted by request of mkp.

A smaller patch would have been sufficient, namely:
