&mvi->lock and &task->task_state_lock could be acquired under irq
context from mvs_64xx_isr(). As mvs_port_deformed() also acquire
the lock, called from workqueue sas_suspend_devices() under process
context, and without irq protection.

<deadlock #1>
mvs_port_deformed()
--> mvs_port_notify_deformed()
--> mvs_do_release_task()
--> mvs_int_rx()
--> mvs_slot_complete()
--> spin_lock(&mvi->lock)
<interrupt>
   --> mvs_64xx_isr()
   --> spin_lock(&mvi->lock)

<deadlock #2>
mvs_port_deformed()
--> mvs_port_notify_deformed()
--> mvs_do_release_task()
--> mvs_int_rx()
--> mvs_slot_complete()
--> spin_lock(&task->task_state_lock)
<interrupt>
   --> mvs_64xx_isr()
   --> mvs_int_rx()
   --> mvs_slot_complete()
   --> spin_lock(&task->task_state_lock)

Another strange thing is that while inspecting the code I find
mvs_do_release_task() should be called with phy->mvi locked held,
but the call chain from mvs_port_notify_deformed() seems do not
hold the lock.

The current patch just switch spin_lock(&task->task_state_lock)
to spin_lock_irqsave(). If I didn't miss anything, seems the better
way could be adding a spin_lock_irqsave() to protect mvi->lock at
mvs_port_notify_deformed()?
