I wish liquidio/octeon weren't a special case.  Why should that driver
reset the device when unbinding when no other drivers do?

Looks like this was added by 70535350e26f ("liquidio: with embedded
f/w, don't reload f/w, issue pf flr at exit").  Maybe Rick will chime
in.

How would we do this?  The PCI core isn't called after unbinding, is
it?  So I guess we'd have to have a queue and a worker thread to
process it?

Device removal also has nasty locking issues, and a queue might help
solve those, too.  Might also help in the problematic case of
40f11adc7cd9 ("PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream bridges"),
which we had to revert.
