ata: Add a new flag to destinguish sas controller
SAS controller has its own tag allocation, which doesn't directly match to ATA tag, so SAS and SATA have different code path for ata tags. Originally we use port->scsi_host (98bd4be1) to destinguish SAS controller, but libsas set ->scsi_host too, so we can't use it for the destinguish, we add a new flag for this purpose. Without this patch, the following oops can happen because scsi-mq uses a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause __ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in ata_qc_new_init().
