Subject: scsi: zfcp: spin_lock_irqsave() is not nestable

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit e7cb08e894a0b876443ef8fdb0706575dc00a5d2 upstream.

We accidentally overwrite the original saved value of "flags" so that we
can't re-enable IRQs at the end of the function.  Presumably this
function is mostly called with IRQs disabled or it would be obvious in
testing.
