The stack traces should be gone if you apply the 2nd patch of the
series ("hpsa: destroy sas transport properties before scsi_host").
My testing (done with a SLES12 kernel), without my patches, showed
these traces for the removal of "sas_port" structures. Adding PATCH 1/2
indeed adds more of these warnings (now for "sas_port" *and*
"sas_phy"). But that's not the fault of this patch; it's caused by the
sequence of actions in hpsa_remove_one() and it's fixed in PATCH 2/2.

Martin
