Reuse ata_port_{suspend|resume}_common for sas. This path is chosen over adding coordination between ata-tranport and sas-transport because libsas wants to revalidate the domain at resume-time at the host level. It can not validate links have resumed properly until libata has had a chance to perform its revalidation, and any sane placing of an ata_port in the sas-transport model would delay it's resumption until after the host. Export the common portion of port suspend/resume (bypass pm_runtime), and allow sas to perform these operations asynchronously (similar to the libsas async-ata probe implmentation). Async operation is determined by having an external, rather than stack based, location for storing the result of the operation.

Now that libata's runtime PM problems seem to be fixed for the moment, we can revisit port PM here. Just checking... Is this patch still needed?
