xen/pciback: Don't deadlock when unbinding. As commit 0a9fd0152929db372ff61b0d6c280fdd34ae8bdb 'xen/pciback: Document the entry points for 'pcistub_put_pci_dev'' explained there are four entry points in this function. Two of them are when the user fiddles in the SysFS to unbind a device which might be in use by a guest or not. Both 'unbind' states will cause a deadlock as the the PCI lock has already been taken, which then pci_device_reset tries to take. We can simplify this by requiring that all callers of pcistub_put_pci_dev MUST hold the device lock. And then we can just call the lockless version of pci_device_reset. To make it even simpler we will modify xen_pcibk_release_pci_dev to quality whether it should take a lock or not - as it ends up calling xen_pcibk_release_pci_dev and needs to hold the lock.
