  Using LSI / Agere FW643 with vfio-pci will issue an FLreset, causing
a broken link only recoverable by removing power (power-off /
suspend + rescan). Prevent this bus reset.
With this change, the device can be assigned to VMs with VFIO.

Usefulness:
The LSI FW643 PCIe->FireWire 800 interface may be EOL but it is
the only one that does not use a PCIe->PCI bridge.
It was used in the following Apple machines:
MacBookPro10,1
MacBookPro9,2
MacBookPro6,2
MacBookPro5,1
Macmini6,1
Macmini3,1
iMac12,2
iMac9,1
iMac8,1
It is reliable and enables FireWire audio interfaces to be used
on modern machines.
Virtualization allows for flexible access to professional audio
software.

Implementation:
PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATT was reused as they are identical and I am
uncertain it is correct to add another ID for LSI to pci_ids.h.

I don't quite understand the commit log.  It says Function Level
Resets cause a problem, but the patch sets PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET,
which prevents Secondary Bus Resets, not Function Level Resets.

By default, I think we try reset methods in order of
pci_reset_fn_methods[], so the fact that we get to the end and 
try pci_reset_bus_function() (where PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_BUS_RESET is
tested) suggests that we weren't able to use FLR or PM resets.

IIUC, vfio-pci resets devices to prevent leaking state from one VM to
another.  We might be willing to accept the downside of allowing that
leakage, but I think it's worth mentioning that in the commit log.

Add blank lines between paragraphs (also in the comment below), or
rewrap into a single paragraph.
