An EEH during probe can lead to a crash as the recovery thread races
with the probe thread. To avoid this issue, introduce new states to
fence out EEH recovery until probe has completed. Also ensure the reset
wait queue is flushed during device removal to avoid orphaned threads.

The use of the term "fence" in the commit message might be a bit confusing given how the term is already used in the context of EEH :)
