Start killing off the pointless sci_base* structures which do nothing
but causing a lot of unreadable code by converting forth and back
between them and the real structures.

I've done the sci_base_controller, and sci_base_request on a rainy
sunday afternoon, but the port, phy and remote device also need the
same treatment.  And after that the sci_base_object crap needs to
go in favour of just using container_of or properly typed pointers.

But I'll rather leave that to you Intel guys, spending more time
on this codebase won't be good for my mental health.
