(A few patches later on I propose that we always just do a reset+wedge
on suspend in lieu of hangcheck.)

On resume, we have to bring the HW up from scratch and do another reset
in the process. Some platforms have been known to survive the trips to
PCI_D3 (someone is lying!) and so we _have_ to do a reset to be sure we
clear the HW state. I expect we would need to force a reset on resume
even for the guc, to be sure we cover all cases such as kexec.
