Attempt to return the correct value at ata_scsi_find_dev() instead of 
NULL, when the ata device is managed by libsas?

If we use sdev_to_domain_dev(), there will be a compilation warning. But 
we can replace with scsidev->sdev_target->hostdata.

As above, we can replace with scsidev->sdev_target->hostdata.
