IDE: Fix HDIO_DRIVE_RESET handling
Currently, the code path executing an HDIO_DRIVE_RESET ioctl is broken
in various ways. Most importantly, it is treated as an out of band
request in an illegal way which may very likely lead to system lock ups.
Use the drive's request queue to avoid this problem (and fix a locking
issue for free along the way).
