Require a valid isci_host in support of the general cleanup to not
re-lookup the host via potentially fragile methods when more robust
methods are available. Also cleans up some more casting that should be
using container_of() to up-cast a base structure in a more type-safe
manner.

Until we synchronize against device removal this limits the damage of
use after free bugs to the driver's own objects. Unless we implement
reference counting we need to ensure at least a subset of a remote
device is valid at all times. We follow the lead of other libsas
drivers that also preallocate devices.
This also enforces maximum remote device accounting at the lldd layer,
but the core may still run out of RNC's before we hit this limit.

Replace the device completion infrastructure with the controller wide
event queue. There was a potential for the stop and ready notifications
to corrupt each other, now that cannot happen.
The stop pending flag cannot be used until devices are statically
allocated. We temporarily need to maintain a completion to handle
waiting for an object that has disappeared, but we can at least stop
scribbling on freed memory.
A future change will also get rid of the "stopping" state as it should
not be exposed to the rest of the driver.

The midlayer is already throttling i/o in the places where host_quiesce
was trying to prevent further i/o to the device. It's also problematic
in that it holds a lock over GFP_KERNEL allocations.

It belies the fact that isci_remote_device and scic_sds_remote_device
are one in same object with the same lifetime rules.

Removed all callbacks in the deprecated.c. Core will call the appropriate
functions directly.

Support for the up to 2x4-port 6Gb/s SAS controllers embedded in the
chipset.
This is a snapshot of the first publicly available version of the driver,
commit 4c1db2d0 in the 'historical' branch.
