With commit 1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a queue
depth less than 32")
ata_qc_new() try to use scsi_host, while it
is a NULL pointer for ipr IOA and error message shows below:
...
While scsi_host is unused in ata_sas_port_alloc(), better to set it
in ata_sas_port_alloc() instead of in driver.

What about my patch itself, ata_sas_port_alloc() has "shot" in
parameters list, but unused.
Maybe better to set ap->scsi_host here, it is very convenient, and
drivers, like ipr, may forget to set this field, otherwise "shot" need
to be removed from parameters list I think.
Thanks,
Mike
