Yang Yingliang 5d7bebf2df scsi: scsi_transport_sas: Fix error handling in sas_phy_add()
If transport_add_device() fails in sas_phy_add(), the kernel will crash
trying to delete the device in transport_remove_device() called from
sas_remove_host().

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000108
CPU: 61 PID: 42829 Comm: rmmod Kdump: loaded Tainted: G        W          6.1.0-rc1+ #173

Fix this by checking and handling return value of transport_add_device()
in sas_phy_add().

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
