When unloading the driver, mailbox commands may be sent without holding a reference on the ndlp. By the time the mailbox command completes, the ndlp may have reduced its ref counts and been freed. The problem was reported by KASAN. While unregistering due to driver unload, have the completion noop'd by setting the ndlp context NULL'd. Due to the unload, no further action was necessary. Also, while reviewing this path, the generic nulling of the context after handling should be slightly moved.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
