  scsi: mptsas: Fixup device hotplug for VMWare ESXi
      
  VMWare ESXi emulates an mptsas HBA, but exposes all drives as
  direct-attached SAS drives.  This it not how the driver originally
  envisioned things; SAS drives were supposed to be connected via an
  expander, and only SATA drives would be direct attached. As such, any 
  hotplug event for direct-attach SAS drives was silently ignored, and 
  the guest failed to detect new drives from within a VMWare ESXi
  environment.

  [Test]
  The patch has been verified based on the Ubuntu kernel v4.4.0-97.120.
