It's everything, but a BIOS bug, it's DT bug and whoever first introduced that
GPIO in the driver. Even in the DT present in kernel the pin was referred as
CAM_RST_N, which is exactly how this patch names it.

OTOH it's a fix to the driver that never worked for ACPI case, so there never
was a regression to fix.
