This adds a new callback to support device specific reset
behavior. The vdpa bus driver will call the reset function
instead of setting status to zero during resetting.

This does gloss over a significant change though:

Unfortunately this breaks virtio_vdpa:


static void virtio_vdpa_reset(struct virtio_device *vdev)
{
        struct vdpa_device *vdpa = vd_get_vdpa(vdev);

        vdpa_reset(vdpa);
}


and there's no easy way to fix this, kernel can't recover
from a reset failure e.g. during driver unbind.

Yes, but it should be safe with the protection of software IOTLB even
if the reset() fails during driver unbind.
