[PATCH] scsi: lpfc: Fix improper handling of refcount in lpfc_bsg_hba_set_event()

[Qiu-ji Chen <chenqiuji666@gmail.com>]

This patch fixes a reference count handling issue in the function 
lpfc_bsg_hba_set_event(). In the branch 
if (evt->reg_id == event_req->ev_reg_id), the function calls 
lpfc_bsg_event_ref(), which increments the reference count of the 
associated resource. However, in the subsequent branch 
if (&evt->node == &phba->ct_ev_waiters), a new evt is allocated, but the 
old evt should be released at this point. Failing to do so could lead to 
issues.

To resolve this issue, we added a release instruction at the beginning of 
the next branch if (&evt->node == &phba->ct_ev_waiters), ensuring that the 
resources allocated in the previous branch are properly released, thereby 
preventing a reference count leak.

This bug was identified by an experimental static analysis tool developed
by our team. The tool specializes in analyzing reference count operations
and detecting potential issues where resources are not properly managed.
In this case, the tool flagged the missing release operation as a
potential problem, which led to the development of this patch.
