Alan was saying controller can be reset in ->reset method, which gets called
before ehci_run (if HCD sets ->start = ehci_run). Right? This really helps
HCDs which requires additional hardware initialization after controller reset.
HCD can register it's own function for ->reset method and use ehci_run for
->start method.
