Yes, hard to see... mpt3sas is the only SAS HBA that can actually carry the
"high prio" bit for the command to the HBA FW SATL using the prio bit of the SAS
frame for the SCSI command that is to be translated into a high prio SATA command.

This driver supports NCQ priority since the first support series in 4.10 kernel.
So I added the same change as for libahci to keep it in sync with the pure ATA
side of things.

But sure, it could be a patch on its own outside this series.
