Subject[PATCH] [RESEND] qla2xxx: fix potential deadlock on ha->hardware_lock
Lockdep reports:

=== [ cut here ] ===
=========================================================
[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
3.6.0-0.0.0.28.36b5ec9-default #1 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------------------
qla2xxx_1_dpc/368 just changed the state of lock:
(&(&ha->vport_slock)->rlock){+.....}, at: [<ffffffffa009b377>] qla2x00_configure_hba+0x197/0x3c0 [qla2xxx]
but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock in the past:
(&(&ha->hardware_lock)->rlock){-.....}

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&(&ha->vport_slock)->rlock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&ha->hardware_lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&ha->vport_slock)->rlock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&ha->hardware_lock)->rlock);
=== [ cut here ] ===

Fix the potential deadlock by disabling IRQs while holding ha->vport_slock.
