Adds two new APIs to assert/deassert PCI reset to a given device. This is needed for an ipr PCI-E adapter which does not properly implement either BIST nor PCI-E hot reset, requiring a PCI-E warm reset, which is what this implements.
Having this exported only on a single platform is wrong. Any API for PCI drivers should be implemented on all platforms, even if some of it have it stubbed out.
