When working on a bare-metal system, if FLR will happen the firmware will handle it and driver will have no knowledge of it, and this will cause two issues: 1.The driver will be in operational state while it should be in reset. This will cause the heartbeat mechanism to keep sending messages to FW while pci device is in reset. Eventually heartbeat will fail and the device will end up in non-operational state. 2. After FW handles the FLR, and due to the reset it'll go back to preboot stage, and driver need to perform hard reset in order to load the boot fit binary. This patch will add reset_prepare hook that will set the device to be in disabled state, so it'll be not operational, and also reset_done hook which will be called after the actual FLR handling, then it will perform hard reset.

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.
