When no reset method is available, libata currently oopses.  Although
the condition can't happen unless there's a bug in a low level driver,
oopsing isn't the best way to report the error condition.  Complain,
dump stack and fail reset instead.

ACK (held in mbox, due to waiting on drive manufacturers' responses)

ACK, but holding due to hold on prefer-hardreset patch (pinging device 
manufacturers)

Please drop this one.  #upstream-fixes now has a patch to allow drivers
w/o any reset method.
