[PATCH] Revert "PCI: Avoid reset when disabled via sysfs"

From: Alex Williamson

This reverts commit 479380efe1625e251008d24b2810283db60d6fcd.

The reset_method attribute on a PCI device is only intended to manage
the availability of function scoped resets for a device. It was never
intended to restrict resets targeting the bus or slot.

In introducing a restriction that each device must support function
level reset by testing pci_reset_supported(), we essentially create a
catch-22, that a device must have a function scope reset in order to
support bus/slot reset, when we use bus/slot reset to effect a reset
of a device that does not support a function scoped reset, especially
multi-function devices.

This breaks the majority of uses cases where vfio-pci uses bus/slot
resets to manage multifunction devices that do not support function
scoped resets.
