H A Dscsi_transport_sas.hc9fefeb2 Sun Jul 02 11:10:18 CDT 2006 James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@steeleye.com> [SCSI] scsi_transport_sas: add unindexed ports

Some SAS HBAs don't want to go to the trouble of tracking port numbers,
so they'd simply like to say "add this port and give it a number".
This is especially beneficial from the hotplug point of view, since
tracking ports and the available number space can be a real pain.

The current implementation uses an incrementing number per expander to
add the port on. However, since there can never be more ports than
there are phys, a later implementation will try to be more intelligent
about this.
