[SCSI] hpsa: export resettable host attribute

This attribute, requested by Redhat, allows kexec-tools to know
whether the controller can honor the reset_devices kernel parameter
and actually reset the controller.  For kdump to work properly it
is necessary that the reset_devices parameter be honored.  This
attribute enables kexec-tools to warn the user if they attempt to
designate a non-resettable controller as the dump device.
