Hi,

I was doing an analysis of Fibre Channel frames when I started to see:

I looked at the packet-fcdns.c and it seems there are some hfis that are created but never registered. The following 
patch seems to make the error go away.

You might also run ./tools/checkhf.pl across the dissector to see if
you caught them all.
