scsi: aic94xx: validate the EDB index in asd_get_response_tasklet()

This commit validates the empty data buffer index in
asd_get_response_tasklet() to prevent out-of-bounds array access. If the
sequencer returns an invalid edb_id, the driver now prints a debug message
and returns early.

        ^^^^^^^

[Severity: Medium]
Does returning early here leave the task status as SAS_PROTO_RESPONSE?

If this return is taken, ts->stat is not updated to an error status. For SSP
tasks, sas_end_task() in libsas maps SAS_PROTO_RESPONSE to DID_OK and
SAS_SAM_STAT_GOOD. For ATA tasks, libsas parses the task's uninitialized
response buffer, resulting in no error mask.

Could this lead to a false-positive task success, masking hardware errors or
causing silent data corruption if data was not actually transferred?
