Ok.
To perform a protocol adapter reset we would require upstream and downstream
adapter ports. So that we can use tb_port_write() set the 
ADP_PCIE_CS_0.Path Enable bits.
Challenge here is to get the upstream port without discovering. I'll 
think more on this line
if its possible to reset the protocol adapters and its path.

If you have any reference here or any idea already in mind, let me know, 
I can give it a try :)
