Edwin Peer 6882c36cf8 bnxt_en: attempt to reinitialize after aborted reset
Drawing a hard line on aborted resets prevents a NIC open in
some scenarios that may otherwise be recoverable. For example,
if a firmware recovery happened while a PF was down and an
attempt was made to bring up an associated VF in this state,
then it was impossible to ever bring up this VF without a
rebind or reload of its driver.

Attempt to reinitialize the firmware when an aborted reset (or
failed init after a reset) is discovered during open - it may
succeed. Also take care to allow the user to retry opening the
NIC even after an aborted 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.
