Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:

New issues:
- [Low] Logging Formatting Defect: Error message is improperly split across two consecutive `dev_info()` calls.

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Concurrency / Use-After-Free: Lockless access to `ndlp->nrport` and `nrport->remoteport` can lead to a Use-After-Free due to concurrent unregistration.

--- Patch [11]: [PATCH 11/13] scsi: lpfc: enable FPIN notification for NVMe ---
commit 6d41021b653095acd49d1f7828d07c1405835a16
Author: Jesse Taube <jtaubepe@redhat.com>

scsi: lpfc: enable FPIN notification for NVMe

Implement set_rport_marginal callback using nvme_fc_set_remoteport_fpin() to
enable FPIN notifications for NVMe.

[Severity: Low]
Does this code format the output correctly?

Because dev_info() prepends the device name and KERN_INFO to every
invocation, splitting the message across two calls without a newline on the
first will cause the prefix to be injected in the middle of the sentence in
the kernel log.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this lockless retrieval of nrport via
lpfc_ndlp_get_nrport() safely protect against concurrent unregistration?

The macro performs a lockless double-fetch of ndlp->nrport without acquiring
ndlp->lock:

drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_nvme.h:
#define lpfc_ndlp_get_nrport(ndlp)				\
	((!ndlp->nrport || (ndlp->fc4_xpt_flags & NVME_XPT_UNREG_WAIT))\
	? NULL : ndlp->nrport)

If a concurrent remote port loss triggers lpfc_nvme_unregister_port(), it
could free the NVMe remote port memory before setting ndlp->nrport = NULL.

Could this code then read a dangling pointer and pass nrport->remoteport
to nvme_fc_set_remoteport_fpin(), resulting in a Use-After-Free?
