scsi: hisi_sas: Fix SATA devices missing issue during I_T nexus reset



SATA devices on an expander may be removed and not be found again when I_T
nexus reset and revalidation are processed simultaneously.

The issue comes from:

 - Revalidation can remove SATA devices in link reset, e.g. in
   hisi_sas_clear_nexus_ha().

 - However, hisi_sas_debug_I_T_nexus_reset() polls the state of a SATA
   device on an expander after sending link_reset, where it calls:
    hisi_sas_debug_I_T_nexus_reset
     sas_ata_wait_after_reset
      ata_wait_after_reset
       ata_wait_ready
        smp_ata_check_ready
         sas_ex_phy_discover
          sas_ex_phy_discover_helper
           sas_set_ex_phy

   The ex_phy's change count is updated in sas_set_ex_phy(), so SATA
   devices after a link reset may not be found later through revalidation.

A similar issue was reported in:
commit 0f3fce5c ("[SCSI] libsas: fix ata_eh clobbering ex_phys via
smp_ata_check_ready")
commit 87c8331f ("[SCSI] libsas: prevent domain rediscovery competing
with ata error handling").

To address this issue, in hisi_sas_debug_I_T_nexus_reset(), we now call
smp_ata_check_ready_type() that only polls the device type while not
updating the ex_phy's data of libsas.
