Jason Yan 2fa4a32613 scsi: libsas: dynamically allocate and free ata host 
Commit 2623c7a5f2 ("libata: add refcounting to ata_host") v4.17+ introduced
refcounting to ata_host and will increase or decrease the refcount when
adding or deleting transport ATA port.

Now the ata host for libsas is embedded in domain_device, and the ->kref
member is not initialized. Afer we add ata transport class, ata_host_get()
will be called when adding transport ATA port and a warning will be
triggered as below:

refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 103 at
lib/refcount.c:153 refcount_inc+0x40/0x48 ......  Call trace:
 refcount_inc+0x40/0x48

 worker_thread+0x58/0x3f0
 kthread+0xfc/0x128
 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18

And also when removing transport ATA port ata_host_put() will be called and
another similar warning will be triggered. If the refcount decreased to
zero, the ata host will be freed. But this ata host is only part of
domain_device, it cannot be freed directly.

So we have to change this embedded static ata host to a dynamically
allocated ata host and initialize the ->kref member. To use ata_host_get()
and ata_host_put() in libsas, we need to move the declaration of these
functions to the public libata.h and export them.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
