Now if a new device replaced a old device, the sas address will change.

Hmmm... not if it's a SATA disk, which would have some same invented SAS address.

We unregister the old device and discover the new device in one
revalidation process. But after we deferred the sas_port_delete(), the
sas port is not deleted when we registering the new port and device.
The sas port cannot be added because the name of the new port is the
same as the old.

Fix this by doing the replacement in two steps. The first revalidation
only delete the old device and trigger a new revalidation. The second
revalidation discover the new device. To keep the event processing
synchronised to the original event,

Did I originally suggest this? It seems to needlessly make the code more complicated.

we wrapped a loop and added a new
parameter to see if we should revalidate again.

Ohh, sorry to say, but that's a real hack :)

Could we just add a flag for the expander PHY to force a discovery instead of this?

I assume that you need to do this as the expander PHY change count will not be modified for the next revalidation (so no discovery on that PHY).
