After modularize patchsets, sata_link_hardreset() does all the chores
needed around hardreset and sata_mv should be able to just build a loop
around it.

Mmm... I don't see how this helps.
The bulk of mv_sata_hardreset() is from sata_std_hardreset().
The only part those two do *not* have in common, is that
sata_mv needs to do it's own equivalent of sata_link_hardreset(),
so sata_link_hardreset() cannot be reused here. Wrapper or not.
Now, if we had a per-LLD .link_hardreset op, defaulting to sata_link_hardreset,
then this would be trivial.
