Subject: [PATCH 3.18 11/85] scsi: isci: Fix infinite loop in while loop

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

[ Upstream commit 4bc83b3f272fe8f36450f9c003df49cf07ffe5fd ]

In the case when the phy_mask is bitwise anded with the phy_index bit is
zero the continue statement currently jumps to the next iteration of the
while loop and phy_index is never actually incremented, potentially
causing an infinite loop if phy_index is less than SCI_MAX_PHS. Fix this
by turning the while loop into a for loop.
