Hi Calvin,
Any reason why this sas_device_put is placed outside the sas_device
lock? Most other instances in this patch were called just before unlocking.
BTW I attempted testing, but needed to port to mpt3 and ended up with a
driver that didn't boot :( Hopefully I can retry later this week, or
find an older mpt2 box lying around.
