ibmvnic: retry reset if there are no other resets
Normally, if a reset fails due to failover or other communication error there is another reset (eg: FAILOVER) in the queue and we would process that reset. But if we are unable to communicate with PHYP or VIOS after H_FREE_CRQ, there would be no other resets in the queue and the adapter would be in an undefined state even though it was in the OPEN state earlier. While starting the reset we set the carrier to off state so we won't even get the timeout resets. If the last queued reset fails, retry it as a hard reset (after the usual 60 second settling time).
