QNAP TS-209 broken by "orion/kirkwood: reset PCIe unit on boot"

[Martin Michlmayr]

I noticed that 2.6.36-rc no longer boots on my QNAP TS-209.  I get
some output but then the machine resets.

I've bisected it down to the patch "orion/kirkwood: reset PCIe unit on
boot".  I remember this patch was controversial when it was proposed.
Looks like it breaks at least one orion5x machine.  Maybe the patch
should be reverted for now or only be called on kirkwood.

I remember that Marvell was looking into this issue.  Saeed, have you
had a chance to investigate this more in the meantime?  See
http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=124822863706181&w=2 for the original
problem.
