The initial version of this patchset used this function for libsas as well. But
that is now gone, so I can indeed inline this.
Note that with the STATELESS flag added, the linking of ata dev and scsi dev
should work just fine for libsas now, so we could add it. But I am still not
convinced that is necessary... Will have a look as a follow up.
