Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: lpfc: Move cfg_log_verbose check before calling lpfc_dmp_dbg()

In an attempt to log message 0126 with LOG_TRACE_EVENT, the following hard
lockup call trace hangs the system.

Call Trace:
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x32/0x40
lpfc_dmp_dbg.part.32+0x28/0x220 [lpfc]

Kernel panic - not syncing: Hard LOCKUP

The same CPU tries to claim the phba->port_list_lock twice.

Move the cfg_log_verbose checks as part of the lpfc_printf_vlog() and
lpfc_printf_log() macros before calling lpfc_dmp_dbg(). There is no need
to take the phba->port_list_lock within lpfc_dmp_dbg().
