The resources I mentioned is totally unseen to driver, it's something related
to our device management part in hypervisor, so it won't cause host resources
leak, and the cleanup/reset process may take a long time. For these reason,
we don't wait the completion of the cleanup/reset in the remove routing.
Instead, the driver will wait the device status become ready in probe routing
(In most cases, the hardware will have enough time to finish the cleanup/reset
before the second probe), so that we can boost the remove process.

Thanks,
Cheng Xu
