[SCSI] qla2xxx: Defer enablement of RISC interrupts until ISP initialization completes.
Josip Rodin noted
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.sparc/10152) the
driver oopsing during registration of an rport to the
FC-transport layer with a backtrace indicating a dereferencing of
an shost->shost_data equal to NULL. David Miller identified a
small window in driver logic where this could happen:
> Look at how the driver registers the IRQ handler before the host has
> been registered with the SCSI layer.
>
> That leads to a window of time where the shost hasn't been setup
> fully, yet ISRs can come in and trigger DPC thread events, such as
> loop resyncs, which expect the transport area to be setup.
>
> But it won't be setup, because scsi_add_host() hasn't finished yet.
>

Close this window by enabling RISC interrupts after the host has
been registered with the SCSI midlayer.
