If we went into sas_rediscover_dev() the attached_sas_addr was already
insured not to be zero. So it's unnecessary to check if the
attached_sas_addr is zero.

And although if the sas address is not changed, we always have to
unregister the old device when we are going to register a new one. We
cannot just leave the device there and bring up the new.

The preceeding checks in code check for no device/comm fail or SATA flutter.

If we're rediscovering the device and the SAS address has not changed, 
then why previously still try to discover a new device? I'm guessing 
sas_discover_new() had no affect in this case, since maybe since the PHY 
was already discovered. But that would not make sense since you say "we 
are going to register a new one". Or, if we are always going to register 
a new one, how did we ensure we always unregistered the old device 
previously (when SAS address did not change)?

When we went here, means it is not flutter, something must change,
either the device type or the phy address. Then we call
sas_discover_new(). And sas_discover_new() sure *have* effect in this
case. Please check sas_discover_new() carefully.

If SAS address did not change, the device type must changed, otherwise
it will be a "flutter" and won't get here. So if the device type
changed, do we have a reason to keep the device? I don't think so.
