Add support to get and control a list of resets for the device, and

set 0 to this flags.

This series solves the issue of the previous patch [1] that was already
reverted [2].

When you change a function prototype, you must also change all
the callers in a single commit, so that all intermediate commits
will compile without errors, otherwise you will break git bisect.

Otherwise this looks good.

I suggest you split this like this:

1) Add a flags argument to ahci_platform_get_resources(),
   without adding support for any flags yet, so this just
   changes the function prototype and passes 0 for the new
   flags argument *everywhere* without any other changes
2) Add support for a AHCI_PLATFORM_GET_RESETS flag, basically
   your current first patch, minus the prototype patches
3) A patch which passes AHCI_PLATFORM_GET_RESETS for the
   generic ahci_platform driver (so break this out of your
   first patch). Also describe in the commit message of this
   patch why / for which platforms this is necessary.

The idea of doing 3. separately is that we can easily revert
it in case of problems while keeping the core functionality
in place. Note I do not expect this to be necessary.

Regards,

Hans
