[05/99] sata_nv: make sure link is brough up online when skipping hardreset

From: Greg KH

2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6489e3262e6b188a1a009b65e8a94b7aa17645b7 upstream.

prereset doesn't bring link online if hardreset is about to happen and
nv_hardreset() may skip if conditions are not right so softreset may
be entered with non-working link status if the system firmware didn't
bring it up before entering OS code which can happen during resume.
This patch makes nv_hardreset() to bring up the link if it's skipping
reset.

This bug was reported by frodone@xxxxxxxxx in the following bug entry.
