PATCH 1/1 aic94xx: Don't call pci_map_sg for already-mapped scatterlists

It turns out that libata has already dma_map_sg'd the scatterlist entries that go with an ata_queued_cmd by the time it calls sas_ata_qc_issue. sas_ata_qc_issue passes this scatterlist to aic94xx. Unfortunately, aic94xx assumes that any scatterlist passed to it needs to be pci_map_sg'd... which blows away the mapping that libata created! This causes (on a x260) Calgary IOMMU table leaks and duplicate frees when aic94xx and libata try to {pci,dma}_unmap_sg the scatterlist.

Since dma_map_sg and pci_map_sg are fed the same struct device, I think it's safe to add a flag to sas_task that tells aic94xx that it need not map the scatterlist. It didn't break anything on the x260, though I don't have any SATAPI devices to test with. Is this the correct approach to fixing this problem?

Rather than introduce an extra flag, I think we can key of the protocol
flag: libata is the only thing that initiates STP tasks. How does this look?

ACK.
