sas_suspend_devices() walks port->dev_list with list_for_each_entry()
while sas_notify_lldd_dev_gone() may drop the last reference and free
the current device, so the next iteration dereferences freed memory.
Use list_for_each_entry_safe() to keep the next entry around.
Fixes: 303694eeee5e ("[SCSI] libsas: suspend / resume support")

The low-level device driver should not keep (nor put) a reference to the
domain device.
Notice how sas_put_device() is in sas_internal.h ?
