When the event queue is full of phy up and down events and reached the
threshold, we will queue a shutdown-event, and set phy->in_shutdown so
that we will not queue a shutdown-event again. But before the
shutdown-event can be executed, every phy-down event will clear
phy->in_shutdown and a new shutdown-event will be queued. The queue will
be full of these shutdown-events.

Fix this by only clear phy->in_shutdown in sas_phye_shutdown(), that is
after the first shutdown-event has been executed.


Seems ok as a fix:

After this fix, could we change to use a static per-PHY shutdown event so that we cannot re-queue it? I know that this is going against idea of dynamic events, but it's easier than messing with flags like this.
