3.13.11-ckt21 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: James Bottomley <JBottomley at Odin.com>

commit 56cbd0ccc1b508de19561211d7ab9e1c77e6b384 upstream.

mvsas is giving a General protection fault when it encounters an expander
attached ATA device.  Analysis of mvs_task_prep_ata() shows that the driver is
assuming all ATA devices are locally attached and obtaining the phy mask by
indexing the local phy table (in the HBA structure) with the phy id.  Since
expanders have many more phys than the HBA, this is causing the index into the
HBA phy table to overflow and returning rubbish as the pointer.

mvs_task_prep_ssp() instead does the phy mask using the port properties.
Mirror this in mvs_task_prep_ata() to fix the panic.
