[PATCH 7/9] vfio/migration: Reset device if setting recover state fails

[Avihai Horon <avihaih@nvidia.com>]

If vfio_migration_set_state() fails to set the device in the requested
state it tries to put it in a recover state. If setting the device in
the recover state fails as well, hw_error is triggered and the VM is
aborted.

To improve user experience and avoid VM data loss, reset the device with
VFIO_RESET_DEVICE instead of aborting the VM.
