hpsa: correct skipping masked peripherals
commit 64ce60ca upstream. The SA controller spins down RAID drive spares. A REGNEWD event causes an inquiry to be sent to all physical drives. This causes the SA controller to spin up the spare. The controller suspends all I/O to a logical volume until the spare is spun up. The spin-up can take over 50 seconds. This can result in one or both of the following: - SML sends down aborts and resets to the logical volume and can cause the logical volume to be off-lined. - a negative impact on the logical volume's I/O performance each time a REGNEWD is triggered.
