This patch set updates the lpfc driver to revision 8.1.4, which includes
the following changes:

 - Fix Discovery processing for NPorts that change their NPortId on the fly
 - Fixed RSCN handling when a PLOGI is in retry.
 - Fixed a timer panic due to timer firing after freeing ndlp
 - Introduce lpfc_reset_barrier() function for resets on dual channel adapters
 - Two misc fixes:
   - Fix deadlock caused by return with host_lock held in lpfc_findnode_did
   - Initialize all fields of the allocated mail box structure to zero.
     Was causing some sysfs mailbox commands to fail immediately after load.
 - Change version number to 8.1.4

All these changes look good to me.
