KVM: Enable Function Level Reset for assigned device
Ideally, every assigned device should in a clear condition before and after
assignment, so that the former state of device won't affect later work.
Some devices provide a mechanism named Function Level Reset, which is
defined in PCI/PCI-e document. We should execute it before and after device
assignment.
(But sadly, the feature is new, and most device on the market now don't
support it. We are considering using D0/D3hot transmit to emulate it later,
but not that elegant and reliable as FLR itself.)
[Update: Reminded by Xiantao, execute FLR after we ensure that the device can
be assigned to the guest.]
