[PATCH 6/8] libfc: Do not let disc work cancel itself

From: Bhanu Prakash Gollapudi <bprakash@broadcom.com>

When number of NPIV ports created are greater than the xids
allocated per pool -- for eg., creating 255 NPIV ports on a
system with nr_cpu_ids of 32, with each pool containing 128
xids -- and then generating a link event - for eg.,
shutdown/no shutdown -- on the switch port causes the hang
with the following stack trace.

Call Trace:
schedule_timeout+0x19d/0x230
wait_for_common+0xc0/0x170
__cancel_work_timer+0xcf/0x1b0
fc_disc_stop+0x16/0x30 [libfc]
fc_lport_reset_locked+0x47/0x90 [libfc]
fc_lport_enter_reset+0x67/0xe0 [libfc]
fc_lport_disc_callback+0xbc/0xe0 [libfc]
fc_disc_done+0xa8/0xf0 [libfc]
fc_disc_timeout+0x29/0x40 [libfc]
run_workqueue+0xb8/0x140
worker_thread+0x96/0x110
kthread+0x96/0xa0
child_rip+0xa/0x20

Fix is to not cancel the disc_work if discovery is already
stopped, thus allowing lport state machine to restart and try
discovery again.
