The cause of the problem is that the related ex_phy's attached_sas_addr was
not cleared after the end device probe failed. In order to solve the above
problem, a function sas_ex_unregister_end_dev() is defined to clear the
ex_phy information and unregister the end device after the exp-attached end
device probe failed.

As the sata device is an asynchronous probe, the sata device may probe

SATA, almost always capitalize acronyms

failed after done REVALIDATING DOMAIN. Then after its port is added to the
sas_port_del_list, the port will not be deleted until the end of the next
REVALIDATING DOMAIN and sas_destruct_ports() is called. A warning about
creating a duplicate port will occur in the new REVALIDATING DOMAIN when
the end device reconnects. Therefore, the previous destroy_list and
sas_port_del_list should be handled before REVALIDATING DOMAIN.

Changes since v1:
- Simplify the process of getting ex_phy id based on Jason's suggestion.
- Update commit information.
