[PATCH v2] net/iavf: add VF reset check

In the current implementation, after application calls rte_eth_dev_reset,
it has no way to know if reset has been completed, and if the virtual
channel command is called before it is completed, it may cause the dev to
be abnormal. To avoid this issue, an uncertain delay need to be added.

This commit adds a VF reset check before the dev_reset to inform
the application not to invoke any virtual channel commands, to avoid making
the device to be abnormal.
