In commit d2ba5675d899 ("[SCSI] qla2xxx: Disable local-interrupts while
polling for RISC status.") added a local_irq_disable() before invoking
the ->intr_handler callback. The function, which was used in this
callback, did not disable interrupts while acquiring the spin_lock so a
deadlock was possible and this change was one possible solution.

The function in question was qla2300_intr_handler() and is using
spin_lock_irqsave() since commit 43fac4d97a1a ("[SCSI] qla2xxx: Resolve
a performance issue in interrupt").
I checked all other ->intr_handler callbacks and all of them use the
irqsave variant so it is safe to remove the local_irq_save() block now.

Applied to 4.19/scsi-queue. Thanks!
