Aaahh, now I get what's happening (with some kicks^Whelp from Hannes I admit).

The sas_unregister_dev() comes from the work queued by notify_phy_event(). So this patch must be
replaced by (untested):

diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c
index cdbb293..e1e6492 100644
--- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c
+++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c
@@ -375,6 +375,7 @@ void sas_remove_children(struct device *dev)
  */
 void sas_remove_host(struct Scsi_Host *shost)
 {
+       scsi_flush_work(shost);
        sas_remove_children(&shost->shost_gendev);
 }
 EXPORT_SYMBOL(sas_remove_host);

John, mind giving that one a shot in your test setup as well?

Thanks,
	Johannes
