net/mlx4_core: Manage interface state for Reset flow cases
We need to manage interface state to sync between reset flow and some other relative cases such as remove_one. This has to be done to prevent certain races. For example in case software stack is down as a result of unload call, the remove_one should skip the unload phase. Implement the remove_one case, handling AER and other cases comes next. The interface can be up/down, upon remove_one, the state will include an extra bit indicating that the device is cleaned-up, forcing other tasks to finish before the final cleanup.
