Heh.  Okay, apparently it now needs a .pmp_hardreset function,
which was never there before.  So I've now added one that does this:

mv_pmp_select(link->ap, sata_srst_pmp(link));
        return sata_std_hardreset(link, class, deadline);

And it seems to be working now with that function supplied, at least for port-0.
Anything else new that it should have?  I'll scan through libata-pmp.c and see.

Time to clean out the debug cruft and test a few things a bit more.

Cheers
