Hm, I thought we had, but maybe I'm confused. At one point were we
resetting the device when we unloaded the module, and we could only
reinitialise the driver if we did so within 5 seconds (the 31.09 boot2
timeout). I could have sworn I'd fixed that.

It would be useful to be able to reset the device from software when
it's in standalone mode -- how hard would it be to fix that?
