scsi: BusLogic: Remove bus_to_virt()
The BusLogic driver is the last remaining driver that relies on the
deprecated bus_to_virt() function, which in turn only works on a few
architectures, and is incompatible with both swiotlb and iommu support.
Before commit 391e2f25601e ("[SCSI] BusLogic: Port driver to 64-bit."), the
driver had a dependency on x86-32, presumably because of this
problem. However, the change introduced another bug that made it still
impossible to use the driver on any 64-bit machine.
This was in turn fixed in commit 56f396146af2 ("scsi: BusLogic: Fix 64-bit
system enumeration error for Buslogic"), 8 years later, which shows that
there are not a lot of users.
Maciej is still using the driver on 32-bit hardware, and Khalid mentioned
that the driver works with the device emulation used in VirtualBox and
VMware. Both of those only emulate it for Windows 2000 and older operating
systems that did not ship with the better LSI logic driver.
Do a minimum fix that searches through the list of descriptors to find one
that matches the bus address. This is clearly as inefficient as was
indicated in the code comment about the lack of a bus_to_virt()
replacement. A better fix would likely involve changing out the entire
descriptor allocation for a simpler one, but that would be much more
invasive.
