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.
