Please use code from latest kernel. This again seems to be the old
comment format.

The log at 562240.051046 tells that phy19 formed a wideport with phy16,
but then here we see that phy19 has attached SAS address 0. How did we
form a wideport with a phy with sas address 0? Sorry if I asked this
before, but I looked through the thread and it is not clear.

Sorry, but that is not a callpath. Maybe you condensed it. Please expand it.

I don't understand why we do anything when in this state. linkrate == 5
means phy reset in progress. Can we just bail out until the SATA phy is
in a decent shape? I assume that when the SATA phy is in "up" state that
we get a broadcast event and can re-evaluate.

this seems ok

Please pay attention to this comment. It seems that some expanders
require us to explicitly zero the SAS address.

This does not feel like the right place to do this. So the port which we
queue to free is the ex_dev->parent_port, right?
BTW, do you know why it's called ex_dev->parent_port and not
ex_dev->port? I find the name parent_port confusing...
Thanks,
John
