In the case when the phy_mask is bitwise anded with the
phy_index bit is zero the continue statement currently jumps
to the next iteration of the while loop and phy_index is
never actually incremented, potentially causing an infinite
loop if phy_index is less than SCI_MAX_PHS. Fix this by turning
the while loop into a for loop.

Applied to 4.17/scsi-fixes. Thanks!
