Jason Yan 6f54120e17 ata: do not schedule hot plug if it is a sas host
We've got a kernel panic when using sata disk with sas controller:

We found that Ding Xiang has reported a similar bug before:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9179817/

And this bug still exists in mainline. Since libsas handles hotplug and
device adding/removing itself, do not need to schedule ata hot plug task
here if it is a sas host.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
