Before this commit we would always reset the controller at probe when we have access to the GPIOs which are necessary to do a reset. Doing the reset requires access to the GPIOs, but just because we have access to the GPIOs does not mean that we should always reset the controller at probe. On X86 ACPI platforms the BIOS / UEFI firmware will already have reset the controller and it will have loaded the device specific config into the controller. Doing the reset sometimes causes the controller to lose its configuration, so on X86 ACPI platforms this is not a good idea. This commit adds a new reset_controller_at_probe boolean to control the reset at probe behavior. This commits sets the new bool to true when we set irq_pin_access_method to IRQ_PIN_ACCESS_GPIO, so there are no functional changes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
