This is the right fix for this bug.

We have:
- SCSI=m
- SCSI_AIC94XX=y
- SCSI_MVSAS=m
- SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS=y

The problem is:
- SCSI_AIC94XX selects (and requires) SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS
- SCSI_MVSAS selects (and requires) SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS
- with SCSI=m a SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS=y is not linked into the kernel

SCSI_AIC94XX=y also results in the AIC94xx driver not being linked into
the kernel here (and that's also fixed by this patch), but this alone
wouldn't result in a build bug...
