From: Anjali Singhai Jain <redacted> This change makes a common flow for Client instance open during init and reset path. The Client subtask can handle both the cases instead of making a separate notify_client_of_open call. Also it may fix a bug during reset where the service task was leaking some memory and causing issues.

While the original patch description did not call this out clearly, this patch fixes an issue with the RDMA/iWARP driver i40iw, which would randomly crash or hang without these changes.
