    [SCSI] libsas: fix failure to revalidate domain for anything but the first expander child. · 24926dad

    In an enclosure model where there are chaining expanders to a large body
    of storage, it was discovered that libsas, responding to a broadcast
    event change, would only revalidate the domain of first child expander
    in the list.
    
    The issue is that the pointer value to the discovered source device was
    used to break out of the loop, rather than the content of the pointer.
    
    This still remains non-compliant as the revalidate domain code is
    supposed to loop through all child expanders, and not stop at the first
    one it finds that reports a change count. However, the design of this
    routine does not allow multiple device discoveries and that would be a
    more complicated set of patches reserved for another day. We are fixing
    the glaring bug rather than refactoring the code.
