Hello all,

this patch in needed in addition to the previous one make
suspend/resume work in the forced ahci mode.

During resume from suspend to ram, the kernel pci layer restores
the registers for the SATA controller once, then says okay, and
sets dev->state_saved = false. However, since the restore goes
from highest address (the BARs [base address registers]) to
lowest register, some of the higher registers are set as RO
because according to the lower registers controller is in PIIX
mode.  This patch introduces a workaround for
this problem, hacking around the PCI API by setting
pdev->state_saved = true
before we do the restore, basically leaving the pci config space
untouched.

Bye,

Joerg

    This remark should probably follow --- tear line (after the signoff).

    "Hello" and "bye" shouldn't be the part of the patch description.

    Need space before the email address.
