Subject: [PATCH] igb_uio: remove device reset in open

[ upstream commit f73b38e9245d77d4d6b5861f8d203c0bf5120b15 ]

Remove device reset during application start, the reset for application
exit still there.

Reset in open removed because of following comments:
1- Device reset not completed when VF driver loaded, which cause VF PMD
   initialization error.
   Adding delay can solve the issue but will increase driver load time.

2- Reset will be issues all devices unconditionally, not very efficient
   way.

Fixes: b58eedfc7dd5 ("igb_uio: issue FLR during open and release of device file")
