[PATCH v2 04/21] lpfc: Fix lpfc nvme host rejecting IO with Not Ready message

In a link bounce scenario, a condition can occur where the
discovery engine swaps an ndlp structure (address changbe for
an nport). While the swap was successfully executed by the
discovery engine, the driver did not properly detect a change in
the ndlp bound to the nvme rport. This error resulted in the nvme
host transport issuing an IO to the correct nvme rport, but the
lpfc driver addressed a ndlp with an NLP_UNUSED status and failed
the io. This resulting it it looking like there were missing
namespaces and applications failed due to io errors.

To fix, in lpfc_nvme_register_rport, rework the "rebind" case
to break the nvme rport<->ndlp association when the ndlp
already has an nrport. Then rebind the rport to the correct
ndlp data and backpointers.
