The client doesn't need to call device_free_chan_resources and device_terminate_all
to be specific. Client can certainly call these if it needs to but it is not
required to recover the channel.

After the reset in error condition, the client can continue issuing new requests
with tx_submit and device_issue_pending as usual.
