Yes,
For phy19, when the phy is attached and added to the parent wide port,
the path is:
sas_rediscover()
->sas_discover_new()
->sas_ex_discover_devices()
->sas_ex_discover_dev()
-> sas_add_parent_port().
And the path called when it is removed from parent wide port is:
sas_rediscover()
->sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr() // The sas address of phy19 becomes 0.
Since ex_phy->port is NULL, phy19 is not removed from the parent wide
port's phy_list.

For phy0, it is connected to a new sata device.
sas_rediscover()
->sas_discover_new()->sas_ex_phy_discover()
->sas_ex_phy_discover_helper()
->sas_set_ex_phy() // The device type is stp. Since the linkrate
is 5 and less than 1.5G, sas_address is set to 0.
->sas_ex_discover_devices()
->sas_ex_discover_dev()
->sas_ex_discover_end_dev()
->sas_port_alloc() // Create port-7:7:0
->sas_ex_get_linkrate()
->sas_port_add_phy() // Try adding phy19 to port->7:7:0,
triggering BUG()

Thanks,
Xingui
