On module unload/reload, the device does not go through cold reset and
can be in error state on further reload, causing mhi power up to fail.
This patch simply resets the device in remove so that it is in the
exact same condition as before probing (not only MHI layer, but all
the device context), I think it makes sense and prevents any
unexpected state on further reloading. Note also that unloading the
module (or unbinding the device) is not something that usually
happens, except when the user does it explicitly for any reason.
