Currently we do a final scrub of the HW state upon release. However, when rebinding the device, this is too late as the device may either have been partially rebound or the device is no longer accessible. If the device has been removed before release, the reset goes astray leaving the device in an inconsistent state, unlikely to work without a full PCI reset. Furthermore, if the device is partially rebound before the HW scrubbing, there may be leftover HW state that should have been scrubbed. Either way, we need to push the scrubbing earlier before the removal, so into unregister. The danger is that on older machines, resetting the GPU also impact the display engine and so the reset should be after modesetting is disabled (and before reuse we need to recover modesetting).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
