[PATCH 5.16 092/285] scsi: libfc: Fix use after free in fc_exch_abts_resp()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Jianglei Nie <niejianglei2021@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 271add11994ba1a334859069367e04d2be2ebdd4 ]

fc_exch_release(ep) will decrease the ep's reference count. When the
reference count reaches zero, it is freed. But ep is still used in the
following code, which will lead to a use after free.

Return after the fc_exch_release() call to avoid use after free.
