Provide debugfs capability to kick link and devices into hard-reset

So we are performing reset of the device behind the kernel, so I think
it makes sense to mark the kernel as tainted.

This is a bit ironic. This reset is the only way to prove that the enumeration is done right and that all the subsystem fully recovers, and yet we'd mark the kernel as 'untrustworthy' and all bug reports would be ignored.

I don't mind doing this but we'd have to agree on a code. The only one I see relevant is "taint requested by userspace application", which is not exactly super useful.

We may want to get rid of the debug and do:
         return sdw_cdns_exit_reset();

this debug line is useful, it marks the start of the reset sequence and that's valuable information. Remove it and you've lost the ability to analyze the dmesg logs. It's even more useful if we mark the kernel as tainted as you suggested above.
