[PATCH-next] scsi: libsas: dynamically allocate and free ata host

From: Jason Yan
Date: Sun May 06 2018 - 22:01:00 EST


Now the ata host for libsas is embedded in domain_device, and the ->kref
member is not initialized. Afer we add ata transport class,
ata_host_get() will be called when adding transport ATA port and a
warning will be triggered as below:

refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 103 at lib/refcount.c:153 refcount_inc+0x40/0x48
......
Call trace:
refcount_inc+0x40/0x48
ata_host_get+0x10/0x18
ata_tport_add+0x40/0x120
ata_sas_tport_add+0xc/0x14
sas_ata_init+0x7c/0xc8
sas_discover_domain+0x380/0x53c
process_one_work+0x12c/0x288
worker_thread+0x58/0x3f0
kthread+0xfc/0x128
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18

And also when removing transport ATA port ata_host_put() will be called
and another similar warning will be triggered. If the refcount decreased
to zero, the ata host will be freed. But this ata host is only part of
domain_device, it cannot be freed directly.

So we have to change this embedded static ata host to a dynamically
allocated ata host and initialize the ->kref member. To use
ata_host_get() and ata_host_put() in libsas, we need to move the
declaration of these functions to the public libata.h.
