PCI: Reset Lenovo ThinkPad P50 nvgpu at boot if necessary

On ThinkPad P50 SKUs with an Nvidia Quadro M1000M instead of the M2000M
variant, the BIOS does not always reset the secondary Nvidia GPU during
reboot if the laptop is configured in Hybrid Graphics mode.  The reason is
unknown, but the following steps and possibly a good bit of patience will
reproduce the issue:

  1. Boot up the laptop normally in Hybrid Graphics mode
  2. Make sure nouveau is loaded and that the GPU is awake
  3. Allow the Nvidia GPU to runtime suspend itself after being idle
  4. Reboot the machine, the more sudden the better (e.g. sysrq-b may help)
  5. If nouveau loads up properly, reboot the machine again and go back to
     step 2 until you reproduce the issue

This results in some very strange behavior: the GPU will be left in exactly
the same state it was in when the previously booted kernel started the
reboot.  This has all sorts of bad side effects: for starters, this
completely breaks nouveau starting with a mysterious EVO channel failure
that happens well before we've actually used the EVO channel for anything:

  nouveau 0000:01:00.0: disp: chid 0 mthd 0000 data 00000400 00001000 00000002

This causes a timeout trying to bring up the GR ctx:

  nouveau 0000:01:00.0: timeout
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 12 at drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/gr/ctxgf100.c:1547 gf100_grctx_generate+0x7b2/0x850 [nouveau]

The GPU never manages to recover.  Booting without loading nouveau causes
issues as well, since the GPU starts sending spurious interrupts that cause
other device's IRQs to get disabled by the kernel:

  irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
  ...
  handlers:
  [<000000007faa9e99>] i801_isr [i2c_i801]
  Disabling IRQ #16
  ...

  i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.4: Transaction timeout
  rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_set_irq_bits: Failed to change enabled interrupts!

This causes the touchpad and sometimes other things to get disabled.

Since this happens without nouveau, we can't fix this problem from nouveau
itself.

Add a PCI quirk for the specific P50 variant of this GPU.  Make sure the
GPU is advertising NoReset- so we don't reset the GPU when the machine is
in Dedicated graphics mode (where the GPU being initialized by the BIOS is
normal and expected).  Map the GPU MMIO space and read the magic 0x2240c
register, which will have bit 1 set if the device was POSTed during a
previous boot.  Once we've confirmed all of this, reset the GPU and
re-disable it - bringing it back to a healthy state.
