When the transport calls into the lpfc target to release an IO job structure, which corresponds to an exchange, and if the driver was waiting for an exchange in order to post a previously received command to the transport, the driver immediately takes the IO job and reuses the context for the prior command and calls nvmet_fc_rcv_fcp_req() to tell the transport about a newly received command. Problem is, the execution of the IO job release may be in the context of the back end driver and its bio completion handlers, thus it may be in a irq context and protection code kicks in in the bio and request layers that are subsequently called. Rework lpfc so that instead of immediately upcalling, queue it to a deferred work thread and have the thread make the upcall. Took advantage of this change to remove duplicated code with the normal command receive path that preps the IO job and upcalls nvmet_fc. Created a common routine both paths use. Also corrected some errors that were found during review of the context freeing and reuse - basically unlocked operations and a somewhat disjoint set of calls to release associated job elements. Cleaned up this path and added locks for coherency.

README
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.
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.
